20 May




My very, very favorite part of the week was 

getting this picture of my grandson! 

Isn't he just the cutest thing you ever saw!

Due to make his appearance in the world on 2 October.

Joe and I got married a few weeks ago.

We didn't have a ceremony. 

We went to town hall and did everything right there

one Monday morning. 

It was exactly as we both wanted it. 

~
I came home last night to beautiful flowers from friends

in congratulations on our marriage.

The whole house smells heavenly this morning. 



It is teacher appreciation month and we have been gifted with so many

wonderful things from the parents where I work.

I am a teacher in a toddler class and I love them to pieces 

but it's hard work!

They tire me out and it's so nice to feel the appreciation the parents have.

~

It's beautiful out today! It's bright and sunny 

and is expected to get into the mid 70s!


and....a bonus this week...

can I just say how happy I am that it's Friday.

I've had a bad cold all week and I'm so ready to relax a bit.

First Snow

  Happy birthday to my beautiful daughter, Bonnie. She brings me so much joy. My first snow day of the year! I work at a Montessori school and we are getting our first big snow storm of the year so.... SNOW DAY!!  I made my own hummus last weekend. It was delicious. I added a little bit of turmeric along with the chickpeas, lemon, tahini, and garlic.  I plan on eating a more plant based diet this year. It's only been a week and I'm already feeling better. I did eat two slices of mushroom pizza last night and ended up having heartburn so it will be a good long time before I eat dairy again.  Each month one of our families brings in a bouquet of flowers.  We cut most of the stems off and place them on a tray which we place on the children's table.  We place another tray with a very small pitcher and a few very small bud vases.  The child fills up the pitcher using water from the bathroom sink, brings it back to the table and pours the water in a bud vase of their choosing.

Oh Little Town of Bethlehem

Image
  My daughter, Hannah's house is just so pretty. It's a large, Victorian era duplex with beautiful light. Some of the windows have been replaced but there are a few old leaded windows that are old and beautiful and the light is so soft that I am always taking pictures. This is an sweet old table that she picked up in her travels. She put some vintage Christmas ornaments in a terra cotta pot and next to that is a lemon tree plant. The whole thing sits under her kitchen windows. So pretty. My husband and I went to her house on Christmas morning. She served us delicious French toast and mimosas. ~  A friend of mine flew over Marblehead on her way home from vacation and had the wherewithal to take a photo.  It made me think of Oh Little Town of Bethlehem.  This year I was able to purchase a poinsettia through my church in honor of my mother. It was comforting to know that she was represented during the Christmas Eve Mass. I had a chance to rearrange the living room a little bit. I
