Mama was a smart woman

I love this picture of mother, as a young woman. Mother asked daddy about building us a new house. He was a carpenter and certainly knew how to do it. The old one is in the back of the picture. She said, "We will buy what we need every two weeks and pay for it, and you can build it." Well, she is sitting on the evidence of the beginning of the house. She made about $75.00 every two weeks working at the Kinston Sewing Factory, Kinston, AL. He would tell her the supplies they needed and that is what they bought. They worked together to build the house and I even helped! What a day that was when we moved into one house and slept in the other. Mother was a wise woman, a smart woman, and one I will forever admire and love. Mother's Day will always be hers to me.
