I know what you mean about thoughts of the passing of your Mum. My Dad and Mum both died on the 1st of December a few years apart..my birthday is on the 12th and it took a while to get through to the New Year without sadness. .family and grandchildren especially have helped!

Those emotions balance each other so often as one gets older and I find both gain clarity from it. Loss is inevitable, and the next generation goes on, strong and hopeful as ever.

And the dis...That little bluebird cup is adorable. And the display of pine cones in that copper tray didn't escape my notice, either. <br /><br />I'm with Carol about losses near a holiday. Although not a holiday, my grandmother died exactly two weeks after my birthday when I was 19. I blame myself because she fixed a huge meal for me, even though she was quite sick at the time. My grandfather lasted until the day before his birthday nine months later.<br /><br />Your desert looks wonderful, and I love the serving set the newlyweds used. I suspect it is vintage, too. <br /><br />Their dog is adorable, and I suspect well loved already. Fur babies have a way of melting any heart.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your walk to the park, your hot cider, and your dessert tray with us for T this Tuesday.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28337090.post-41960828841304358522015-12-08T08:24:02.767-08:002015-12-08T08:24:02.767-08:00Oh, I love the bluebird cup ♥ Glad you got to visi...Oh, I love the bluebird cup ♥ Glad you got to visit with family and enjoy the Holiday.

Looks like Obi enjoyed the visit too:) Love those decorated benches-a nice bright place to rest a bit. Although Thanksgiving is a special day for gratitude and thankfulness we can't help but think of the loved ones we have lost, and especially you losing your dear mother on that day. Glad you were able to feel a bit better by spending it with your family.

Somehow it seems you can't mark the loss quietly by yourself but have outside things reminding you every minute. I hope you can find some peace with this and enjoy Christmas.Darlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02729017606957829830noreply@blogger.com
