Fair
I ironed yesterday a little and today finally got caught up. The first time the ironing basket has been empty since I took charge again. Mrs. McDowell came to see the baby. Marjorie is so bright and strong for her size. Can almost hold her head up now. Is so good since I’m giving her a bottle, too.
(All seems to be going well for Grandma and the baby Marjorie these days.
FYI, I am looking for a picture of Edna (Grandma’s cousin) to post with the other pictures so that when I provide more information on her, there will be a face to put with the story.)

I've never heard of Mrs McDowell. Could be a neighbor or a church friend. Have you noticed that back then very few people were called by their first names. Even their contemporaires were referred to as Mr or Mrs Soandso. It was a more formal society
ReplyDeleteI have been reading through this blog over the last few days after the recommendation on misszoot.com.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for doing this. It is very interesting to see how your grandmother lived. She was an amazing woman who makes me feel very lazy, all that sewing and cleaning.
I will be coming back often for more updates.
What a strong lady she is!!
