Monday


 We are feeling quite elegant with our head-colds now that we have this nice little rattan tissue box.  I bought it when we went up for Patrick's funeral and I really like it!  I am always tempted by things that hide commercial packaging or things that are ugly.  This cover takes care of the offending box and I am happy whenever I grab a tissue!

The kids are really interested in card games lately.  Their favorites are War, Solitaire, and Rummy.  It's really adorable to see them try to shuffle the deck.  I play Solitaire on my phone quite often, but I admit that there is something fun about going analog with a real deck of cards.  I remember playing card games in the evening with my mother while we took turns bouncing my baby brother on our knees.

I'm still enjoying the pretty roses that my little family gave me for my birthday.  I love their delicate creamy color.  They're cheering us up these last days of winter.

How fun. I have only played cards a few times in my life. I was young and onwiahed I knew how to play to teach my kids. The roses are beautiful.

Oh my! For some reason my phone wasn't showing me any of your posts from March 13 on! That is why I was concerned-- I had wondered if you'd taken a hiatus due to lent. Happily, I just discovered all of your more current posts that I get to catch up on! 😊 I always find your blog so peaceful.
