I LOST THE MOLD....20 YEARS AGO. IT WAS BRAND NEW AND I HAD MOLDED ABOUT 2 OF THEM, IN THOSE DAYS I WAS BUYING LOTS OF MOLDS...BUT I REALLY LIKED HIM. HE WAS CALLED (THE THINKER)..now look at him standing there thinkin'. Everybody wanted him but he was nowhere to be found and I looked for 20 years. Now.. to see the pour hole I can tell you what mold it is in a heartbeat....but I'm telling you there was no way after 20 years I was going to find that Brand new mold...UNTIL, a week ago. searching for something else at a really tight spot I was just ready to call it quits and I saw a new mold and thought, no it couldn't be. I couldn't see the pour whole, it was facing the block wall and it was JUST out of reach...well it was a do or dye situation, and I got it and I could not believe the mold said...THE THINKER'. SO.....
guys.... he is so gorgeous. He is only 10inches high and very small built, but he is just the man that you can put on a shelf and when you are so overwhelmed about anything....just put Him to work, He is.... THE THINKER', he'll figure it all out for you......

The following is a Mother’s Day poem that was written for "All" of the wonderful Mothers in the world, of course that includes my mom and my Grandmas.. Please enjoy. The picture that is posted is my Mom and my Grandmother. I guess you can tell they are Mother and Daughter!
Know that I wrote this poem right after my mom died and because I wrote it I can tell each and everyone of you, if you'd like to borrow it for your moms...you are more then welcome, I don't even care if you sign your name to it. JUST PLEASE ...be good to your Mom and thank God you still have HER.
WHAT IS A MOTHER
Penned by ~ Suzie Merwine
She is life…she is the reason we are who we are
She is a peanut butter and jelly sandwich..She’s twinkle, twinkle little star
She taught us the first words we ever spoke..and the first step we ever took
A kiss good night as she tucked us in…with our favorite bedtime storybook
She was there with our first BandAid…and she’d wipe away the tears
With a fever or a tummy ache…she’d hold us gently near
In our eyes …….she is the best Mom that any kid could ever have
A Mother’s love is heartfelt…in happy times or sad
She is the smell of apple pie…the best cookie maker that ever was
The One who taught us right from wrong……..if only just because
She held our hand the first day of school….as she took us to the bus
Tear filled eyes for both of us…but she knew…… it was a must
She was the encouragement we needed…when we felt in life we were losing
And the shelter from the storm…when the world around us was so confusing
She was not always our best friend…or so we thought so growing up
Until one day we realized…. a Mother’s love at time needs to be a little tough
What is a Mother…she is a rose, a butterfly, the brightest star up in the sky
She’s every bit a woman…..with a special twinkle in her eye
It is because of her breath ……that I am able to breathe
Just stop for a second and think….a Mother’s love lives through eternity
Tell Your Mom that you love her... especially on Mother’s Day
You’ll make her so proud ...and that you should!
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY
to ALL of the wonderful mothers in the world, you are ALL so very special!!!
