What Mamma Did... (Five Minute Friday)

 What my Mamma did... what makes her special,  MY mamma? 

My mamma taught me to read, 

not only with black tiles arranged on masking tape and trays, 

but to read "nature"~ the Glory of God's Creation

to stop and notice the small things~ 

to see the beauty in a bouquet of dried weeds, 

to listen to the wind, the birds, the rushing water

My mamma taught me the joy of baking

Bread, biscuits, donuts, cookies

 Candy making~ fudge and taffy

She taught me to always try new things, be creative ~ 

Enter the fair~ art, food, needlework ~ 

you never know if you'll win a ribbon unless you try~

She started my musical journey~ 

Teaching me notes on the staff of life.... 
MOM 
(Love you!)

Note~ photographs added after the 5 minutes were up. All photographs taken by me, but the painting on the right in the bottom strip is an original painting by my mom.

On Fridays a group of people who love to throw caution to the wind and just write without worrying if it’s just right gather to share what five minutes buys them. Just five minutes.  No extreme editing; no worrying about perfect grammar, font, or punctuation.
Unscripted. Unedited. Real.

Blessings~
