Glad Heart!


Today we are paying tribute to our Moms. Thankfully, my Mom who is 89 is still in good health and sound mind. She enjoys her hobby (growing orchids)
I think Mothers Day also causes us to reflect on our own children, and as I look at our two, I cannot help but be happy. During this past year I have seen even more evidence of spiritual growth and maturity in them. Our son and daughter in law were in a situation which could have caused bitterness and strife, but they chose to deal with it with humility, kindness, and love, with a very positive result. Our daughter and son in law went through tough days with his illness and other life changes, and came through with grace.
So today I celebrate with a thankful heart.
I hope you all have a great day!

Victoria…and Me

To see larger photos, click to enlarge.. The May-June 2009 Victoria magazine is one of my favorites, featuring blue and white... one of the open pages with an article on linens...it just happens that I have one of the patterns... There is also a feature on blue and white Wedgewood ... I have photographed some of my pieces alongside the article... ....here is my interpretation of blue and white... As a nod to the current issue of Victoria, which features some tea tables in green, I have  set out my own little tea table, with some scones... ...or perhaps you'd like to help yourself to a chocolate-cherry morsel? On this spring day, I am joining in with : Celebrate Spring http://blissfulrhythm.blogspot.com/ Mary's Mosaic Monday, on whose blog you will see some lovely snowdrops: http://dearlittleredhouse.blogspot.com/2011/03/mosaic-monday-snowdrops.html Also,   Sandi is having a special tea party today, so be sure to go over there and enjoy her lovely blog
