Remember the Right Things




Such wondrous gifts of memory
We gather day by day--
The purple tint of distant peaks,
A laughing child at play!

Why hold the bitter word that wounds
Or store the look that frets,
The lesser mind remembers wrongs,
The greater one--forgets.

i think i recognize that baby dress in the header... ;) i just bought Ruby a big crib (with a drop side, thankyouverymuch), and i'm fixin' to rearrange the bedroom a bit, then i'll hang the dress on a vintage pink baby hanger. there's going to be a vintage chenille baby spread and a picture by Bessie Pease Gutman, too. i'm so fortunate that my hubby doesn't mind pretty girly things in his bedroom! :D
