So sweet... I cry every time I read this post. Sometimes I hurt my mother heart. Sometimes I did it because I know she still love me after everything I did. <br />I&#39;m sorry Amma, I love you.<br />I hope you know it, and I proud to be your daughter.

Dear Erin,<br /><br />When I read your blog, I felt like it was my birthday....You have always been such a gift. What a lovely remembrance . Thank you for all the wonderful things you said about me and our relationship. I am lucky to have you for my daughter and still feel blessed every day. I am grateful that you have such good memories. They made me laugh and cry. It is actually not that

I certainly got teary reading this lovely post. I love the things that stand out in our memory - the tretorns, braided barrettes, and friendship pins!! As I get back into sewing I hear my mother's voice as I use her machine and all those memories of her patience come back to me. Thanks for the post and happy birthday - your photos here are priceless.
