Leone Pearson Tribute

I always remember mom doing artsy things around the house to make it pretty. She painted flowers on lampshades, toilet seats, ect. Her Christmas decorations were always jazzed up somehow to make them special.
She always had little touches to everything in the house using anything she could find. She could take something simple as a piece of yarn and make something out of it..
I sure miss those little things......

Mom had to drive me while I was in labor to the hospital in dads truck. She sat on the very edge of the seat and could still barely reach the pedels. It didn't matter, she used that big toe and had it floored all the way to Lapeer from LO. I was so surprised because she always seemed calm enough in most emergencies. She got me there in plenty of time. Later she told me that she was sure I was sitting on dads payroll for the guys at work and she was afraid my water would break. ahahaha. She couldn't say anything because there was another passenger in the truck and she didn't want them to know the payroll was in there. Oh yeah, that was a wild ride. I was really afraid because with her experience she must have known something I didn't and that I might have the baby right there in the truck. But we all got there safe and she sat by my side the whole long night until yet another grandbaby came into the world. I miss her so.
