❤️What does a door tell you?❤️
Well this one has more stories than I can even imagine.
First of all…. My mom. She gave me the opportunity to work every single day with her. I seen first hand how hard she worked, from racing to get lunch to make sure the boys were fed right at noon. She had a crib in the store for BoDee when he was a baby, so she could be there and have him. That tells you how long she has been there. It was a place the grandkids would go to just sit and hang out with grandma.
She would greet every person with a smile… she has loved that building ever since she filled it up with fun stuff for just about anyone to buy. Since daddy has been gone she has been the one the boys would call and say… can you run me here or can you pick me up from delivering a car( and yes they still do that).
My sister when she moved back was always popping in the door with her hello is anyone here to have lunch or just help( she always said i think im more work than help). It only mattered that she was there.
All the people that would come in and just had to visit. The people that would stop and wait for one of us to run across the street.
Mom would watch the boys work and say… if they got paid for all the people they would stop to help for 10 minutes they would be millionaires. But thats just who they are.
My dad. He would come everyday and sit on the stool and just see how things were going. Drive up on the sidewalk with his bike and knock on the window with the mail. Listening in the back and when you would hear the bang you would run to make sure he wasn’t smashed.
Dancing… oh man there was a lot of that. I wish I could post every video of my mom dancing with her great grandkids. From Hattie to baby Joe. I had the opportunity to have Dotti every Thursday while Shawnee worked and Marv to this day always greets her with hey Thursday.
Thank you to this little building for giving me the chance to see my Mom, not many people get to spend as much time with their mom as I did. The bonus was my dad and 2 brothers was right there also,
Well even though mom and I don’t make millions. It felt like I did just getting to be with her.
We are so happy for the boys to get a new building. My dad would be so so proud to see his 2 boys keep his name alive. And make a dream my dad had come true.
Don’t worry everyone. We are still working. You just have to call for now. We will be back soon. Mom will be there to greet you with her cute smile. 🥹❤️😊😍
