Leah, I also got teary-eyed reading your post about the little boy and the kitten. I have never heard of that movie (PS-I was born in 1970, and I'm not that old, LOL! :D ). If you ever do remember or find out the name of that movie, please let me know. I would love to get it. :)
Yeah, sniff, sniff, sob, sob, weep, weep...
Things are just not the way they were! I have such lovely memories..sigh! I read that "It's a Wonderful World" can only be shown once this year, instead of every week like it used to..don't know why and I may have misread the article. Jackie..true! What a keepsake you have! Would you believe my mother has kept every holiday and birthday card the family ever got? I still have a few stuffed dogs (whatelse?) in decent condition that I saved for old time sake!
Karen, does your mother do like I grew up to do. If you get something really nice for a birthday present or Christmas, you don't use it, you may need it someday, save that pretty sweater, you might not have one some day, save those gold earrings, you might not be able to afford gold some day. I think it's a New England thing born out of living during the second world war when "things" were scarce and you saved whatever ever you got for a rainy day. I was laughing telling Don that our rainy days are here and we might as well use the good china, silverware and everything else we have boxed up. LOL
