Sunday, March 15, 2026

Tonight's picture was taken in March of 2005. Mattie was almost three years old! We were in the process of painting the walls on the first floor, so everything was in the middle of the floor. But as you can see Mattie did not mind the chaos. He had his Easter sunglasses on and was a happy camper. I absolutely loved that smile!

This afternoon, I took my parents out to brunch. It is part of our Sunday routine. For five years we have seen Cheryl (our server) on Sundays. We have gotten to know each other so well, that we give each other gifts. Honestly when Cheryl gave me Easter gifts today, I was practically disoriented. As in my mind Easter is far away! Cheryl's gifts oriented me to the upcoming holiday and each year she adds to my collection of bunnies and eggs! 

Cheryl gave me several towels today!

Towels I collected over the years!

Do you see these wonderful white bunnies? Cheryl gives me a bunny every year!

Cheryl gave me some beautiful eggs today, which I put in a bowl with some faux grass!

All of these items are antiques which were given to me by my former mother-in-law. They are reminders that I was married and was a part of her family for decades.
