** A Year **

It's been a little over a year since Dad died, and I am just now ready to start making my siblings some  friends out of my father's socks.  Pulling the socks out of the bag, cutting them up and repurposing them into something that can make me grin and giggle has been a little therapeutic for me.  I finished my oldest sister, Stana's, sock buddy yesterday and gave it to her.  I am happy to make her smile right now, she is going through alot.  Here is her Monkey Buddy...
I better get busy, since I have a bit more creating to do for my siblings :)
(#2, #3, #4, yours are coming soon!)

    1. Thanks so much Stephanie, and I am very sorry for your loss. I am sure you have many amazing memories of your father. I hope you can round up some of your daddy's socks so that you can have a little keepsake of your own. Thanks for reading my blog :-)
