4Such a sweet memory of your Mom and her special clock. Memories are blessings from GOD. Have a great day

Oh my goodness...I saw the clock and had to peek....It looks very similar to "our" clock...SOOO not me - and I've threatened to replace it with a narrow chimney cupboard or such...but it, too, holds memories. My husband bought it for his mother and it, too, was her prized possession. So when she passed, she wanted him to have it. Memories truly do weave the fabric of our lives....Thanks for the smile today....Smiles & Hugs ~ Rboin
