My Cottage Dream


Ahhh, a screened in porch.  Perfect for potted plants and snoozing on a day-bed.
What a dreamy blue.........



Pillows, pillows, and more pillows.
And a fan.
It's hot on the porch, but the bugs can't get to us.



The sun shining down the hall makes me remember I need to sweep.
I wonder if the stairs creak?



If I'm dreaming, I may as well have stripey curtains.



Gotta fluff up the pillows.
It's not exactly time for bed though.



Look at the pretty chairs!
It almost makes me want to bring them into the front-room!



since I'm dreaming
I must already be sleeping
but can you imagine how this bed would feel?




!!
A room for my mother.
She loves olive green.



How about a spool bed while we're at it?
and a squiggly bedspread?



actually.............I just might not be dreaming after all...........
can you hear the screen-door slam?
One can't get in a door with a watermelon
and not slam a door.



Painted benches.  They're more fun than chairs.



since I own this cottage in my dream
I will name it

*Blue Step Cottage*



I can wait for fire-flies.
right here in the swing.



ahhhhhhhhhhh, THERE'S my HAT !!

My Favorite Child

I wish I had all the pictures I wanted, to go with this blog post........because I know a *picture paints a thousand words*, but for a large part of our family's life, old fashion cameras and old fashion pictures were being used.  So, many of the pictures that would help paint this post are somewhere in boxes and books.  It would take a month of Sundays to find them all so  I will just have to count on your imagination and my memory! FAVORITE: most liked, preferred above all others Sara, you were my favorite.  You were our first baby and we were so excited for you.  Your hair was perfect for me to learn how to braid and you always were very still for me.  You were the first little girl I got to dress up and put lacy socks on.  You were such a fun little girl to read to.  You memorized the books we had and it was a big part of our day to read with each other.  *where is the bear when the wind blows cold?*.    You have always been interested in the *family tree*, dates, p
