HURRY HURRY 3 MOTHER'S DAY PLATES LEFT

Okay, Ladies!
(edited @ 2pm to add-
And GENTS- because
MY FRIEND,MARK,
left me a comment that he
IS NOT a lady...
(really???)
Anyway...
I started out with 
SIX HUMMEL PLATES
left from the original 20.
I am trying to match
them up by sending
them to people 
that have someone 
BORN IN THE 
YEAR THE PLATE WAS 
ISSUED...
AND....
BOY OR GIRL

The only requirement is that
you are a follower of my blog.

So...Here is what I have left.
1973-BOY
If you have a son born in 1973
this plate is yours.
First person responding gets it.
AND
1975-GIRL
If you have a daughter born
in 1975 you can claim this.
AND
1980-BOY
And, as I said before,
if Hummels ARE NOT your thing,
don't sign up.
I want them to go to people
that will love them.

Prior plates are going to:
and

Congrats, girls.
I am going to try my 
best to get these mailed out
the first of the week,
Lord willing and the creek don't rise!

used to collect hummels many years ago and we still have the figures
very sweet pieces The plates are something unique for sure!!

Mark said...

In your post, you referred to me as a "lady" and a "girl". Are you trying to stick it to me?
I can't join in but I wanted to say that this is a great idea! I only wish I had thought of it.

Oh what a sweet thing your are doing here! I actually do have a 1984 girl and I even have a few Hummels, but I don't really do plates so I'm only happy for the person gifted with that one, not envious! How lovely!

Those plates are lovely. What a sweet gesture to send them to people who have children born in those years.
