This pin was my mother's. Its now over 50 years old. Not worth anything, at least in monetary terms, but it does hold a treasure of memories. She wore it every Mother's Day for 45 years or more.
I gave it to her when I was maybe 9 or 10 years old. I remember going shopping in a store called Fishman's with a few dollars in my pocket to shop for Mother's Day. It was like a 5 and 10 across the street from Woolworth's. Does anyone remember Woolworth's? I thought this pin was the cat's meow! I guess Mom did too.
She wore it for the last time 6 years ago. Its been with me since. It will be passed on.
Happy Mother's Day mom.
And Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's.
God's blessings and grace.
with love,

What a great pin and a great way to remember Mother's Day. That is so neat that you have a token like that to remember you mom.
ReplyDeleteI was given a Mother's pin by the Pink Ladies at the hospital when Micki was born. She was born May 6. I still have it and need to give it to her.
