Grandma Letter & Enclosed Family Circle Cartoon ~~ April 1995

Dear Shelby,

Received  your cute card yesterday. 

I went to Donna's for Easter.  She doesn't look good.  She made me an Easter basket.

I'm still watching that little duck on her nest. She is always there.  I don't know when she eats.

Ruth will be going to Oklahoma in a few weeks.

That picture of the man holding the baby says it all.  It is inconceivable that someone could do such a thing.  There are a lot of monsters in the world today.

Did I tell you I made a pillow top for Becky?  It is the ring bearer's pillow.  I cross stitched it and Becky will make it (the pillow).  I had to figure out how to make the names and date in it.  It was a circle of flowers & the names went in the middle and then little pearl beads in the flowers.  She is coming over tonight to get it.  It is lovely.

I must get going. I want to make some broccoli soup for lunch.  Write soon & love to you & Jack.  

Love Always,

Grandma

P.S.  Thank you for the lovely Easter card.

The photo that she referenced was this one taken in the aftermath of the Oklahoma Bombing.  I wonder what she would make of events going on in today's world?
