my mothers day

Odin has been preparing for this day, all week.... he has  given me bits of tender thoughts, kisses, and cuddles- saying "this is because it is almost mothers day".  That child has really prepared me for a day of special treats.  His daddy, and the brother together worked hard to be sure that it was one that I felt loved.  and they succeeded with flying colors.

flowers, 

a necklace,

my necklace photo- is a bad one- but I wanted to get in super close so you could see- it is a tree with "I am blessed" on it.  This beauty was attached to a card saying "having a place to go is home, haivng someone to love is family, having both is a blessing"... and yes, I am blessed.

 my herb box finished, 

and a trip to the museum with my girl, Katie.  At the museum, there was this exhibit that blew my mind at how beautiful it was. titled Sensitive Vision: The Prints of Beth Van Hoesen .  I fell in love with her etchings.  The beauty found in her strokes and use of black and white negative space was amazing.  If you ever visit our city this summer- check out her work, in the basement.... you will not be disappointed.  As Mother's Day goes, this one was a very special one.  Thank you boys, thank you.
