I remember when Linda and I were young and my mother (Aunt Edna) to all the Wooten girls) would come to Grandmommas for the weekend. Linda and I and the sisters as they grew older would sleep upstairs at Grandmommas house and see how many quilts we could crawl under. Aunt Mazie was always a main stay throughout my younger years as she was to Donna and Connie King (Aunt Sisters kids and pretty much all of the cousins!! She was truly loved by all of us.
