Beautiful and precious table…really a treasure and keepsake table.
I nodded and verbally said throughout..Absolutely…absolutely.
God is a prefect parent and yet His children still rebelled…Adam and Eve.
Yes, motherhood is a roller coaster…so glad I know the one who is in the front car guiding the ride.
Oh, our son who is in Cambodia has also been given a chance to come build homes in Brazil…don’t know if the Lord will lead him there or not.
Amen and Amen and Amen! You have said a blog full here. As a parent (that has made plenty of mistakes) I agree wholeheartedly with every word you wrote here. xo Diana
I have to say I agree with EVERYTHING in this post! For all it’s ups and downs, I still wouldn’t want to have missed the ride. ~ Maureen
Once again, I got a double portion with this one. Since you know how much I love words, I always love the words that go with your tables. They make me smile, or think, or often just nod my head. Such was the case this morning. You spoke so many truths in one post. (And I giggled right out loud about that silly “theory” that there are no perfect grandchildren. Surely Little Man and Little Sir will prove that wrong. If they don’t… never fail, the ones in my head and heart will. )
On top of your wonderful words, that table just warmed my heart. I loved the use of the old baby things and all the pink and blue. It was one of your prettiest yet, and from this woman’s perspective, the most creative one I’ve seen in this fun little Mother’s Day table challenge so far.
Happy early(Grand) Mother’s Day, Susan.
picture are eye pleasant….I agree.

Sweet table with all the vintage baby items. I recognize a few from my own baby things – the pink blanket and the silver rattle. Years ago I pulled out my rattle and hung the silver part on a neck wire so I could wear it. Need to see where that is now. 😉
Happy Mother’s Day to you.
A very thoughtful post! Your table includes so many wonder vintage baby items! I have that teething ring, engraved with the time and date of my birth and my weight. Thank you for some good thoughts as we approach Mother’s Day.
Hi Susan, I’ve been so busy helping out with our new little one that I haven’t stopped by your on-line house for a visit in awhile. Oh you are so right, so tragic. My heart goes out to children without mothers in spirit. I also saw a lot of it as a school nurse. And such wisdom in your advise for those blaming their parents who did their best. One of my friends is in great pain right now as some of her children are doing that. I pray she has a good Mothers Day.
May God bless your role as a mother,
Gayle

What a sweet little table! Lovely sentiments on parenting too. It is hard but, so worth it.:) Thank you for joining me at Home Sweet Home!
Hugs,

woww great post good luck
Beautiful post and very true words. Happy Mother’s Day! xo
Hi, Susan. This is such a beautiful, heartfelt post, at just the right time. You are so right that we all, of course, make mistakes, but I see grandchildren as an opportunity to do it all over again, but with the experience that we’ve gained over many years. None of that “spoil them and send them back”–a grandparent’s role is far too important and precious for that! Plus we get to teach our children how to do it better, but yet, they turned out okay, so we must’ve done something right! 🙂
Those baby blankets you have are beautiful! The bunny and the ducky are precious. It would be so fun to try to replicate them!
Happy mother’s/grandmother’s day to you, Susan! ~Zuni
You’ve spoken quite eloquently for so many mothers and daughters. I’m going to send this to my daughter. She’s expecting her first baby, a little girl, in September! We’re so excited. Thanks for this wonderful post. Cherry Kay
