my grandmother was same way---taught me to sew, not my momIf Grandma were alive today I'm sure she would eagerly tell me more, Sadly those memories went to the grave. I sat with Grandma when she was bed ridden. My aunt's said she tells me more stories then she told them and they don't believe she has everything straight. I sat,listened,asked questions and she filled in all the details!
Maybe they had more leisure time when they were older!
that might be it!too busy with house and kidsMaybe they had more leisure time when they were older!
That makes sense! The pictures I saw were not Amish or mennonites. It is likely their culture to not worry about viruses.
The sewing gene seems to skip generations here starting with a great great Grandma that was a seamstress. My Mom sew, by sister does not. My oldest DD started making and altering her close as a per teen. She is quite talented!Maybe they had more leisure time when they were older!
. I was 18 when my Dad was killed and I heard my Mom's feelings, The feelings of all 8 siblings down to my 6 yr old sister. But to hear my Grandmother talk about his death was beyond words! She was 83 years old and in tears she talked about her baby being killed and what she could have done to prevent it. I realized it doesn't matter how old a mother is... Her children are her babies!
and sorry to say my daughter wasn't interested but granddaughter soaks up baking and sewing like a sponge
It happens in your Family too!
The medical community may be able to learn something by tracing the covid among them. They do bipolar studies among them because they only marry among themselves and have no divorce so they are a good choice for genetic research.
