This is my small (but growing) collection of Willow Tree angels. Each one was given to me on very special occasions from very, very special people in my life. The two sitting angels were gifts while my hubby was in Iraq, Serenity (on the left) is from Clara, one of my closest, dearest friends. The Angel of Protection is the Angel sitting with a bunny on the right, Paige sent her to me around the time my hubby was awarded a Purple Heart. Perfect, perfect timing I’d say!
This Christmas, I added a new one to my collection, the standing piece is titled “Mother and Daughter”. Catybug picked it out (all by herself, sniffle). I love it. So of course I set them on the piano and let the piano light give them a special glow, and lastnight before I went to bed the peaceful scene really touched me so I thought I’d share.
This next one is date stamped, an actual 35mm shot! Those are antiques now aren’t they? Well. I was be-bopping around Los Angeles at the time and saw this.
I thought it fit the World Peace theme, what do you think? No? Well. I thought Angels and Whirrled Peas would be a great New Years Eve wish to have for everyone. Especially that Angel of Protection if you’re going out tonight.
I hope you bring in the New Year with enthusiasm, optimism, love and peas in your heart. Stay cozy!

Happy Belated New Year! I have a shirt with the Whirled Peas on it…too funny on a building though! I also have a collection of the Willow Tree figurines…I hope to get the Nativity set next year ;0)
I have three collected. I wish people would provide these angels as gifts to me, but no one seem to remember that I would like to collect them, so I will buy them for myself.
