Somehow they look more Christmas-y to me than newer ones.Entangledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07261805004615133289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-1476921827815932122007-12-28T12:15:00.000-05:002007-12-28T12:15:00.000-05:00Thank you so much for the lovely greetings.

One is a particularly lovely one with an embroidered bouquet of flowers on very thin silk inset into the front. It was sent by my great-grandfather to his mother for Mother's Day during WWI, and the card says he is, "Somewhere in Europe" because they were not able to divulge their locations to their families, of course. Makes me pensive every time I come across it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14395380166485303934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-6979699239204686802007-12-25T13:28:00.000-05:002007-12-25T13:28:00.000-05:00Thanks for sharing this wonderful story Kylee and ...Thanks for sharing this wonderful story Kylee and would you be very surprised if I told you that I sleep in a four-poster bed?

I was collecting vintage stuff and enamored with old family heirlooms ever since I can remember. It always gave me a sense of who I really was--and still does. Thank you for reminding of that this Christmas Eve! Merry Christmas, Kylee!

I felt so sad for the family that gave them up.
