{ heading to Massachussetts }

Hello Folks!
 
I have been mia for a couple of days ~
I am currently in CT visiting with family,
... working on a book deadline, too.
 
Friday my sister & I will be heading up to Massachussetts for the
Brimfield Antiques Show!
 
 
 
I'm hoping to score some antique rug hooks & such ~
perhaps a couple of sewing items, pincushions & stuff...
 and maybe some old frames for new samplers?
 
Who knows...
 ~ I'll be happy just being there!
 
I'll let you know what finds me!!

{ A Mother's Day Gift }

I'd like to wish all of my readers a very
 
~ Happy Mother's Day ~
 
I value each and every one of you,
and think of this blog as my small gift to you...
 
if I can make you smile, cry or laugh out loud ~
remind you take notice of the small, everyday minutia that makes up our daily lives...
if I can share with you some of my feelings and values,
and help you to understand who I am & what propels me ~
and in return receive your gift of friendship & fellowship...
 
then I am the one who is truly blessed.
so here is today's gift to you...pretty pictures:

how very lucky to live in a garden....
how very lucky we are that she found us.
