    How Old Sayings Go

    December
    30
    2005

    My Mom tells me that according to her mom (my Gramma), when Doves are ever-present in your surroundings it is a sign of a peaceful home. Our Mourning Doves are huddled close together beneath our feeders, such a pretty thing to see when your eyes are still tired first thing in the morning.

    I love that when I see these birds, I’m reminded of my Gramma. It got me curious about “how old sayings go…” Do you have a favorite old saying?

    As a sidenote; you guys kicked some serious bloghopping bootie yesterday! My eyes fell out of my head at some point, and my hubby had to pick them up, clean ’em off and pop ’em back in for me. It was really overwhelming, and I hope I can get to everyone who left their links at some point this weekend! I’ll be coding the weight loss blog design today, and hopefully have it up tomorrow (crossing my fingers), and this weekend I’ll be finishing up Joey’s portrait.

    We refilled our feeders (better late than never!) and our birds are back with a vengence! Our Chickadee’s and a new breed – I’ll try to get a better photo of that one to show you.

    We also have a new neighbor. Lastnight, my neighbor brought over her brand new baby …

  • Topping it Off

    December

    2005

    Our Christmas Tree Topper. Every year since 1991, our tree topper has looked like this. The Star of Bethlehem, at the very top of the tree, as it should be. The bow, our symbol of the gifts bestowed upon baby Jesus upon His birth. The Angel, which I created from a craft kit at the inception of this tradition, is made of wire and fitted clear beads. She sits under the bow and announces the birth of Jesus.

    I love our tree topper, because it’s not just a star, it’s not just an angel. It’s the combination and the symbolism that takes my breath away when I look at our tree.

  • Our Own Cherub

    Everyone with children knows that when you find something with your childs name on it, it’s a major accomplishment. I had been collecting Seraphim Angels and have a few, and one day I was looking them over in a Hallmark store and saw this Cherub. She looked so much like our daughter, I had to see her up close. Wouldn’t you know, she’s named after our Caitybug! Needless to say, this perfect little replica of our little Angel hangs year-round in our home, I think more to remind me that she really is sweet – even when I wonder how she can behave like she’s possessed.

    This morning’s photography session is over, and look at this. I could just cry it’s so sweet. I’m picking through the photos I took, filtering them a bit, burning them to CD for the school.

    What a neat thing, the backdrop – Santa – the kids amazement – I’m so glad I volunteered for all of this!

  • Frosty… Our Snowman!

    December

    2005

    Did I ever mention … I hate snow? But, for the past 2 hours, I’ve been out in it. Runny nose, rosy cheeks, big fuzzy boots, I’ve been out playing in the snow. I even waited until the kids left for school. I’m a bad mom. This is some good packin’ snow, ladies & gentlemen. Obviously. This snowman is a lofty 6 foot tall, I had to get his mid section up in two pieces.

    Crud, I better get to work now. Hi-ho, Hi-ho!
