Grandchildren are the crown of the aged
~
and parents are the pride of their children.






Verne is learning to say my name!!

Oh my heart!

I suppose if I was Nana he would have said it already

but I chose to be Hopi and so he says "Ho-hu"

Which just about melts every little part of me into a puddle at his sweet little feet.

Speaking of puddles..




We went to the playground

and Verne found himself a mud puddle to splash around in. 





He loved going down the slides and climbing up and down the stairs.




...Christopher Robin woke up the next day
the sneezles had vanished away
and the look in his eye
seemed to say to the sky
now how to amuse them today...

    These are precious pictures of your grandson. I have a new grandbaby, and she warms my heart as well. There's just something about kids wanting to jump in a big puddle of water...or mud. : )

    How gorgeous is Verne! He's going to be a heartbreaker for sure and he's already melted yours.How lucky you are to have him "amuse you", great WTP quote.
    Thanks for bringing Verne to MM this week.

    Mud and little boys were meant to go together. He is a heartbreaker now, and will be in the future (in the best way!) I am glad you chose a grandma name that meant something to you, even if it might be hard to say at first!

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
