Happy you and your mom had this time together1 Nothing greater than making memories as "mother and daughter"; times you will always remember! Welcome to Cute, Lizell! Glad you had a safe trip home, Marthie!!

Thank you Lizell. I am safe and sound but already packed for the trip to Johannesburg to go and see my mom who took ill while I was visiting Lizell. I had the most wonderful 3 weeks in a very long time. Dankie Kind

Hope your mother has a safe flight. It's difficult to have them leave. I know how it feels as my one daughter comes home once a year for two weeks and tries to spend as much time with all of us as she can. It's kind of tiring, but in a good way. Nomatter how long they're here it seems to go by so fast. Thank goodness for the many ways we now have to communicate with them.

I heard from Marthie yesterday - it will be good to have her back as I am sure all the CT Cuties are missing her. How is the new machine going? Sarah.

Saying Goodbye is always a bit of a bummer!!!

We visit our daughter in AZ for one-three months every two years and the goodbyes never get easier. It's hard to be the guest going and it's hard to be the host returning to an empty house. I feel sad for you right now but things will return to normal and you'll have some wonderful memories to keep you smiling.

Isn't cyber-contact amazing - you'll soon be talking to your Mum and laughing with her again. It's not the same as holding her and giving her a hug and kiss but it's a jolly good second best.

I'm so glad you both had a wonderful time together.
AlmaG.

I love the few hours I have crafting with my daughter. You'll do it with Cute! The projects share cool things not just with mom but all us cutie moms! It sounds like you and your mom are close - that is really cool, and when you have yor kids, you can pass on the "bug". Welcome to Cutie! Hugs & Flowers christine

So sorry to read that Marthie has had to go back home to South Africa. I'm glad you had this time together anyway and that you are now a member on here. It's a great place to meet new friends and of course you can always chat with Mum on here. God bless, love Chris

Hello Lizell, ek is so jammer dat julle so ver uitmekaar uit moet bly, maar nou het julle darem 'n heerlike stokperdtjie om saam te bedryf oor die lyne heen.
I was thinking of you tonight when she BBM'd me from the airport, to say she will be flying soon. Remember that she is always thinking and talking about you when she is here. Now you must come and visit so that you can join us at the Cuties Cape Town Club for even just one meeting.
Have a nice night, and sleep tight.
Lots of warm hugs and God bless.
Marietta

I know how you must feel, my parents came for two months, when they left, it was very hard for me to get used not to see them around. This is the greatest site in this world, not only you share and learn about embroidery but to help you in hard times and good times. Welcome

Hi Lizell, it was great to meet your mom and talk to her on the phone. Now you have your embroidery machine course and your own machine arriving. I am sure you are going to miss your mom, I too hope she has a safe journey back to SA. You sound to have had a brilliant time while she has been over.
