LifeLine

Yesterday (check out Abigail's blog (soon)) we saw a LifeLine helicopter! We got to see it land and takeoff, we also got to check out the inside! It was really neat!
Papa knew one of the people (I think that he was a paramedic) and they talked awhile :)

Here are some pictures:

The Handkerchief....

>Handkerchiefs have been around since Ancient Egypt. But they were not commonly used until the Middle Ages, (ladies would give Knights their handkerchiefs to tie behind their helmet.)


>In America handkerchief's did not become popular until the cotton industry was established. (They were mass produced and more often than not carried political messages!)



"Hankie" Signals (just a few!):

Drawing across the lips- Desirous of an acquaintance


Drawing across the eyes-I am sorry


Letting it rest on the right cheek-Yes


Letting it rest on the left cheek-No


Folding it-I wish to speak to you


Over the shoulder-Follow me


Opposite corners in both hands-Wait for me


Placing on left ear-I have a message for you



(I think this was the most interesting for me!)

My inspiration:


Recently a Sister in our Church gave all of us girls a pocket handkerchief, with a little bird embroidered on one of the corners. Adorable!



The top one is mine and this one ^ is Abigails....


Have a WONDERFUL Day!

Happy Birthday Momma!

Today is my Mom's Birthday.... She is 4_ yrs old today.
She is the most wonderful Mom in the world! Every day I am always so very glad that I picked her for a Mom :)
She is a lot of things to me: School Teacher, Personal Maid (lol), Chef, Chauffeur, the list could go on forever... But I just had to mention a few!
I really love my Mom :) And I really, really appreciate all she does for me!
Thanks Mom!
