Day: December 22, 2017

Ties o’ the Day present another of Momo’s milkweed pod ornaments—another nativity scene, with Mary, Joseph, Jesus, a shepherd, and two of the Three Wise Men. One wise-guy has disappeared. I lost my personal Three Wise Men when I left Delta. My bro-in-law/hubby, Gary, Hank Harris, and Les Harward regularly hold court at the bar at The Pub. During the Christmas season, I refer to them as My Three Wise Men. The rest of the year, I refer to them as My Three Stooges. 🐪

Momo, my g-ma, was gorgeous. Popo, my g-pa, thought she was a babe, and she was until the day she died. She was elegant in manner, speech, and fashion. (That’s where I got those qualities from.🤡) Ties o’ the Day give us Santa-hatted pin-up girls. Momo could easily have been one, but she was too proper for that career. She crafted these Christmas tree ornaments out of milkweed pods. See how beautiful Momo was? The top ornament depicts the nativity scene. Momo was clearly inventive. 🎄
