After the girls drank their tea, they decided to go into Atlanta
to the J C Penny's store and pick up the sheets they had
ordered, for the beds, that would be in the next day. All the
rooms had been painted and pictures had been hung. They were old
black and white prints of magnolia lane, taken at different times. Margo
loved them and thought they would look nice hung in the rooms. So
she ordered big 16 by 20's of them for all the rooms. She had
also found the old pitcher and bowls in the attic, that people
used to set on the dresser or night stands to wash up with
before they had running water. She cleaned them up and put them
in the rooms too. The old place was really looking good, she
thought to her self. I just hope that it does good as a bed and breakfast, it
was grandma Mary's dream now mine too.
Misty, who, was driving, spoke up and said, you are really
quite over there what are you thinking about? Margo said, Magnolia
Lane of course ,I was just thinking about how great everything
is looking, I think grandma would be so happy if she could see
it. Then she choked back the tears as she said, I just wish she
could be here to see her dream come true. Who says she won't be,
said misty. Yeah you're right, knowing grandma she will find a
way if she can. It's just that I miss her so much Misty,
Magnolia Lane is just not the same without her. I know said
misty I miss her
too. She loved magnolia lane so much. But she knew you and Daniel
would take good care
of it. And we will, magnolia lane will
never be forgotten, not as long as I live anyway, and hopefully
our children will feel the same. I will make sure they know all
about magnolia lane, and their family heritage. especially
the woman who made this place so special.
