It survived over 80 years, through a World War ... and it did not make it a week in my house. While I was making dinner, I peeked in on my girls who were happily playing in the living room while I made dinner. Five minutes later, Mr. T arrived home and walked past the living room and said to my Happy Girl, "Oooh, you're in trouble." My card was in little bitty shreds. :-( She'd climbed on the sofa and reached over the desk to grab the card and was deconstructing it - the couple in particular. I grabbed up the tiny pieces and tried to piece it together hoping tape might salvage it, but because of the age, the paper was disintegrating. I had no choice but to discard the fragments in the trash. I wish I'd at least gotten a clearer picture of it since the one above is somewhat blurry.
I'm heartbroken and disappointed, but how can I be upset with this face?
You, my friend , cannot be upset with that pretty little face at all !!!Is she precious or what!!!There will be more cards, xoxo~Kathy~@ Sweet Up-North Mornings...

ReplyDeleteIt is true that the Valentine did end up with the intended recipient 80 years ago. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI'm disappointed, but I look at my sweet girl who doesn't have a clue and I just have to smile!

:-( I had a beautiful vintage teacup that I just loved, until an errant ball hit it one day (HIGH up on a shelf where I *thought* it was safe). What can you do? It's just stuff.
ReplyDelete(I do still miss that teacup though...sniff...)
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry:(
