Auction Time for IHM

I had a lovely thing happen today. I drove to one of my dearest friends kids schools to donate two aprons for their school auction. When I took the aprons up to the parish building, I was greeted by four lovely ladies who had all been working on the school auction. One of the ladies, Gloria has been planning the auctions for over 20 years--can you imagine...Having just worked on my own sons school auction for roughly three months, several hours a week, I had a bit of insight to Gloria's world. It is truly a labor of love that comes with tons of work, follow up, lists, spreadsheets and tax info(I never would have imagined) Anyway, it was great to meet a veteran and also to be greeted so warmly--my aprons are a small donation for IHM that came with a very warm and grateful welcome--which makes the donation experience all the more special.

Since I have now narrowed down the fabric selection for the aprons I sell, I wanted to create a special combination of fabrics in the Modern Day Pinafore especially for this particular event. Something special for one of the most special, brave, caring, kind, compassionate and really...REALLY smart boys I know. So T-Man thanks for letting me donate these to your school and I love and admire you dearly.
