Notebook
Ida Bisser
Winter days can get rather hum
drum. Many jobs are monotonous
such as cooking and cleaning. It is
a time to mend my husband’s work
clothes and take down all of the
curtains and wash them by hand.
However, our children did
something to spice-up the season.
As our 40th wedding anniversary
fell on a Sunday, they invited
friends and relatives to share the
day with us.

Philip, Lisa and Cindy, they took
us to our church-lounge. It is a very
large room with lots of upholstered
chairs and sofas.
It was beautifully decorated
with red and white flowers. There
was a large three-tiered cake with
fresh flowers on the top. I still have
those red carnations and baby’s
breath on the kitchen table. All of
the refreshments were delicious
and attractive too.
Some of the folks we had not
seen for quite a while, and it was a
pleasant surprise to have them
there. Others had been square
dancing with us the night before
and of course never mentioned that
they’d see us the next day.
My sister gave red roses and
when I wrote a thank-you to her, I
mentioned that they lasted longer
than the few short hours of the
gathering.
Even though our children from
Seattle, Atlanta and Memphis
could not be with us, they did tele
phone in the evening, and it was
quite interesting to read the notes
that people wrote as they remem
bered years past.
It is wonderful to have friends to
share life’s adventures with and
relatives upon whom you can
count. God has blessed us with six
marvelous children, good health
and a nice home in the spectacular
United States of America.
