Wordless Wednesday–>Why Boys Need Parents!
Taking a study break…
I became a mom 32 years ago today!
As the experienced mother of 2 very mischievous (now grown) boys and
a grandma to 2 boys
with that twinkle in their eye…
I can tell you this was an hysterical laugh out loud photo essay for me!
Happy 32nd Birthday to my first born son!

Fabulous Vintage Breastfeeding & Mother’s Day Art
HAPPY
MOTHER’S
DAY !

1840 "The Gypsy Mother" engraved by Greatbach
In the world of childbirth, Mother’s Day is a very special day. I have enjoyed years of watching a women become a mother either for the first time or again and again on this very day. It is always wonderful to share that experience with them. Fabulously Joyful!
But today, I get to be home, pampered by my hubby and just milling about… I came across some wonderful websites carrying fabulous vintage engravings and various clip art. I absolutely adore antique engravings! I have some framed and others saved for something I’ll get to one day… 😉
This first few photos above are images courtesy of antiqueprints.com depicting mother and children. There are two WONDERFUL Antique Breastfeeding Engravings! These are all steel engravings with hand color in the first two.
The remainder of art below is from a website called “The Graphics Fairy” and all of these photos are to Karen’s credit over there. Beautiful!
Enjoy!

Watch Wednesday “The GIFT of an Ordinary Day”
Cherish your ordinary days with your babies and little ones now. Enjoy all the moments.
I just watched this on YouTube. Katrina Kenison reads to a group from her book… a mother’s memior “The GIFT of an Ordinary Day” with music played by her son.
Since all my children are grown, it speaks to me as she wrote it. You may get a glimpse of your future feelings.
Very well done..
ENJOY !

Preserved Children
I received this recipe from a friend quite a while back. I felt this would be a great place to share!
Ingredients:
- 1 large field
- 2 or 3 small dogs
- 2 handfuls of dandelion blossoms
- 4 – 6 clusters of daisies or other flowers
- 1 brook or stream
- smooth pebbles
- 1/2 dozen children (more or less)
- Basket of delicious foods
Recipe Directions:
Sprinkle large field with daisies and dandelions. Pour brook gently over pebbles then watch and listen for babbling. Mix children with dogs, add to field and allow to run. Cover all with deep blue sky and bake in sun. Nibble on contents of basket at any time while watching. When well browned……… cool in brook or stream. Alternate cooling could be in bathtub later that day if desired.
Follow this recipe frequently for sweet dreams and happy children!
