Son's Comments on Crochet

[Dextersmom]

My younger son called from college the other day to tell me about his experience working at a pet rescue booth at a festival in his town. After discussing how many dogs were adopted out, he said, "I wish you could have come up Mom. There were a lot of craft booths here with crocheted stuff. You ought to sell your crochet stuff at one of these." I told him I liked to do it for enjoyment not as a job and I jokingly said I didn't think he knew the difference between crochet and knit anyway. He actually took offense to that - said of course he did; there was one booth in particular that had both and he knew the difference right away. He went on to say that I always give all the things I make away and that I should make something for myself. When I got off the phone, I had tears in my eyes. He's such a sweetie! I just had to share that with everyone!

I could only hope that mine will grow up to be as thoughtful and kind-hearted as yours. I would have been all teary, too. I guess it's not surprising if you are the kind of person who is always giving away things you crochet.

Just when you think you have them figured out, they go and surprise you and say something like this.

I had to laugh when you said he got insulted, because you didn't think he knew the difference between knit and crochet.

That is cool, and he must know his mommy very well.
