46 / 365 Memory Can


As I was proofreading our monthly church newsletter, an article under the Children’s Academy headline took me by surprise:  The craft project for March 27th is going to be a soup can pencil holder.

Why, you ask, is this such a big deal?  Because many, many years ago (so many that I can’t remember the details), I made a juice can pencil holder for my father.  I know this because Dad kept it on his dresser, filled with pencils and pens, until the day he died.  It's now on my desk, and I think of him every time I see it.
