the world with a white picket fence
As I sit here thinking about all the picnics and get together’s for the upcoming week-end, my thought went to my Grandma B. Grandma B. was a very sweet lady will lots of love, but hard to buy for. Whenever anyone would ask her what she’d want for a birthday or Christmas, she exclaim “just get me the world with a white picket fence around it.” So one year for Christmas, my creative and somewhat onery dad decided to give her just that for Christmas. He took a block of green foam, glued a small globe to the center and carefully constructed a white picket fence around it made of toothpicks. It was quite the hit and I believe she kept it in her curio up until she died. What a wonderful thought she had. So this year, my wish is a World with a white picket fence around it. (I wish I knew what happened to that globe)
Happy 4th everyone!!!
