Life in our little cottage in the country
The other day a little note arrived in my mail slot at the theater. The sender was: Sad Trio.
Scout’s writing is getting better all the time. Riley’s – not so much.
I miss my little sad trio – but this little note sure made my day!
Have a great Wednesday.
Today’s theme? Bunny rabbits. I love little bunny rabbits – we have several of them on the property here at Mockingbird Hill Cottage. I can’t resist them. You met my newest bunny, Mr. Bunn, yesterday. How about some bunny egg cups?
These sweet egg cups are from my collection. I love each and every one of them. I have more to share with you later this week. The book you see – A Girl of the Limberlost by Gene Stratton Porter – is a book I loved in my childhood. My grandmother gave me a copy when I was a girl. Several years ago I bought a copy just like the one she gave me which had unfortunately gone missing. Recently, I found this beautiful vintage edition and couldn’t resist. The graphics on the cover are gorgeous.
Back to bunnies. I was in Target recently and found some bunny ears for $1.00. Into the basket they went. Don and I always call Scout’s pink and white ears ‘bunny ears.’ You can see where this is going – I had to put them on Scout.
She doesn’t look too pleased, does she?
Uh oh…there’s that look. Let’s try them on Riley instead.
And I thought it was such a great idea.
Square #29:
D for Don, the love of my life, who’s heart is broken at the loss of his father.
Have a wonderful Monday.
Don arrived home yesterday morning after flying all night long – sad to leave his father, happy to be home. Yesterday afternoon we found out my father-in-law had taken a turn for the worse in the hours after Don left. The doctor has said there is no hope. Even the strongest antibiotic has failed to help. And now we wait. Don is heartbroken.
Bless you, dear Lee.
