"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,
but by the moments that take our breath away."

Where did the time go


Time has not stood still as these photos have. 
For even though it seems like only yesterday, 
that these photos were taken.
 They are all grown up now...
for they are 22, 24, 26 and 31 years old.

Though I often remind my youngest,
 that although she is not a baby anymore...
she will always and forever be my baby.

Oh the places you'll go...

Congratulations!
Today is your day.
You’re off to Great Places!
You’re off and away!
--Dr. Suess


There are days in ones life, where life can get no better.  This was one of those days.  A day to cherish the moment and to embrace the amazing young woman she has become.



How very blessed I am to be her mama.

Just a window shopping...

over at Retro Redheads.
This vintage 1930s table cloth caught my eye. I can so envision this on my table with all of its vintage green loveliness.


Vintage fired-on green coffee canister...stunning




Vintage fired-on juice glasses





Vintage flour shaker

Vintage chic


There are times when I come across something and I think its okay, sort of like it, not sure, nope wouldn't buy it.


This would not be one of those times. This is so exquisite and I can envision this on a corner of my dresser.
