Magnolia Blossom

Here is a Magnolia blossom for you.  The scent is subtle and sublime, as if part gardenia and part lemon.  So fresh and lovely,  so fragile and pure.  I delight in these days of the May Magnolia and hope you do too.

Petit Parasol

Pretty Little Parasol 

With your delicate beaded detail

It's  your fragility and imperfection that especially delights my heart!

Your dearness makes my world a magical place and I salute you for that.  

You were hanging in my friends studio (off to one side) still, how could I not notice you and sing your praise?  

When you were consequently sent home with me, I felt those happy kind of tears well up inside, as kindness has that special sort of power over me!

How fortunate am I, dear little parasol...

To have you.

FInding Humor

While my mom was in the hospital, we amused ourselves by imagining that we could write a book entitled:  Hospitals for Dummies.  ;-)  Because seriously, there IS so much to know!

One thing she wanted me to do, is snap a photo of this reader board above with the smiley face drawing.  We were lucky to have Vernon P. as our Housekeeper and he kindly took time to draw this great message above.  When my mom asked if he were an artist, Vernon replied; "No, I'm an Elvis impersonator", well he did have dyed black hair, after all!   We got a lot of mileage out of that one!  

We're back now and although my mom is still a bit weak, it's true that there is

NO PLACE LIKE HOME!!
