Romance of christmas
 
The other day, I recieved a email from my bil. The subject line said...."I need Help!"
I thought to myself. What could this be. Thinking it was going to be some kind of joke he had found.
To my surprise it was a serious message from him.
He said, I need you to make me a customized Christmas stocking for my wife.
Every year, she fills everyones stockings, and she doesn't have one of her own.
I thought, How sweet is this? How thoughtful is this, that he would even notice this?
So he said, so, if you have time, I would like to commission you to make one for her.
So, I contacted him and asked him what he was looking for.
As most of you are I'm sure....I am soooo bogged down with what I have to have ready for Christmas...but, don't you
know I am all caught up in the romance of this, so I am making the stockings now.Far beit from be to interrupt the romance and thoughtfulness of Christmas.Naturally I am going to quilt these stockings. And yes...I said stockings.
Cause I got to thinking about this from a woman's point of view, and we like things to cordinate.lol So I am making him one that will go with it, and he will be surprised to see this. lol When I get them done, I will post pics of them.
Just thought I would share this since we all like stories like this at Christmas.

I do the same thing! I'm sure they will both enjoy the surprise stocking!

What a nice thought on his part. And how wonderful of you to make time at this busy time of the year. You'll make her Christmas brighter.

As my granddaughter (12) would say, "he definitely went to Jared's".
