first... a cute little story about my daughter and my granddaughter.
Miss Holland is putting together sentences and sharing her thoughts...
the day before yesterday, Chrislyn was making Holland
chocolate chip pancakes. she gave her three chocolate
chips to sample while the cakes were cooking.
Holland looked up at Chrislyn, smiled, and said...
..."chocolate...beautiful!"
i love the notion of a twenty-two month old that is able to perceive
what is b e a u t i f u l to "herself".
it warms my heart.
if i were to pick a favorite fruit, it would raspberries.

ReplyDeleteChildren say the most precious things! A real granddaughter after your own heart!
ReplyDeletewhat a sweet story! I hope that you have a wonderful mother's day in a few weeks :)
ReplyDeleteHello Lynne, how lovely that Holland is discerning what is beautiful, but she has a good role model!
ReplyDeleteI am with you on the raspberries, and the hydrangea, and the dress is just amazing, as if you designed it yourself! Can you believe she is almost 2?
Many many thanks for your lovely comments. I am so blown away, that you put my opening day on your calendar. Thank you for your offer of help also, but it really is a local thing that I am doing, but you were very sweet to offer.
Things are going well, but I can't seem to move quickly enough.
Wishing you a joy-filled week, love Linda xx
