After all, with a limited budget, she carefully chose those pieces of furniture for her family home over sixty years ago. My son sleeps in the bed that my mother slept in when she was his age. <br /><br />Now the story of your Pop's drawers continues with you, Violet will grow up remembering them as the place where you stored her favourite toys:) <br /><br />xomonkeemoomoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00384928241028245857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948397622243147877.post-66019941804015580362012-11-22T22:37:34.210+11:002012-11-22T22:37:34.210+11:00So very beautiful!
