Raindrops drizzle down the outside of my craft room window as I cut and sew small fabric strawberries for Carrie and I to take to England next week. My mother's strawberry wind chime randomly makes a sweet tinking sound on occasion, and I wonder what's causing that to happen. Our heater isn't blowing, and the ceiling fan remains in the off position, but still, there is occasional movement and the sweet sound of my mom filling the room.
I smile to myself when I hear Mom's wind chime, and I imagine she is very pleased with our strawberry plans.

Love that you have that gentle reminder of her presence. I know she would be excited about your and Carrie's upcoming trip. I am :)
:o) Thanks, Beverly. ^
BTW, I have a blog post scheduled to post while Carrie and I are in England that will tell all about our Strawberry Project. xo
What a beautiful wind chime. You have captured the memories it stirred so beautifully in your writing. So excited to hear about your England trip! I'm afraid its not very warm at the moment but no more snow thank goodness!
It's lovely
beautiful (and haunting) capture of the moment.
She would be so thrilled that you are having a fun adventure after the sadness of last year. Not many more sleeps now!
Your trip sounds exciting. Can't wait to hear of your strawberry project. Love your mom's wind chime. I have a chime mom gave me with angels. It clings every time the heat/ air turns on. Have a safe trip.
Love that the strawberries look like hearts on the wind chime! Cannot wait to hear about your strawberry project! xoxo
Such a perfectly drawn moment. This time next week, you;ll be here!
How lovely that her connection with you is still so real and present - and the strawberry wind chime is very pretty. Hoping you have a wonderful trip and looking forward to hearing your tales of it when you return home. Thank-you so much for your gentle and evocative moment...
