sprinkle stardust

*
A mother
is a person
who
seeing there are only
four pieces of pie
for five people
promptly
announces
she never did care
for pie
*
Nobody
can do
for little children
what
grandparents do
Grandparents
sort of
sprinkle stardust
over
the lives
of
little children
*
Grandma always
made you feel
she had been waiting
to see just you
all day
and now
the day
was
complete
*
Perfect love
sometimes
does not come
until
the first grandchild

welsh proverb
*
Being
a mother
of
FOUR
who are
grown-ups
and
a grandmother
of little
EVA
10 months now
is
quite an
experience
*
today
my Elisabeth
28 years young
is having her
FIFTH
chemo
because she was diagnosed
with breastcancer
in november 2011.
Five chemo's allready
and
ONLY ONE TO GO
after this .
*
She is so brave
and doing the best she can
having one breast and
no hair ......
*
You would think
when this happens
a mother is going to take care
like when children were little.
*
No such thing
My daugther is 28
and wants to live her own life
and seeing
how difficult it all is
for her mother
is
not what helps
*
I had this
kind of romantic idea
of being a sort of
Florence Nightingale
and cuddle her
as much as I could .
*
She wanted needed space
and I saw
she found her way
in all of this
*
She is still
the bright and sparkling
Elisabeth
and
I
can be her mother
and cuddle
and admire
her courage !
*
lets think
of mothers
and grandmothers
and
live and love life
as it is
SURPRISINGLY
WONDERFUL

gardening


*
My
garden
is
full
of
surprises
*
I never have a plan
I do whatever seems right
I find things
and make something
out of nothing
*
that's what I like the most
making something new
from something old.
*
Give old stuf a new life
and
the birds love that too
They always find their way
to MY garden .
They are always
happy
messing around
in my garden
*
I always have
a lot of
teeming little insects
hidden everywhere
*
They live in my garden !
We happy live together .
*
Wish you
happy gardening too

violets

*
It's
just
a bad day
not
a bad life !

this is
how my Elisabeth
IS
*
The fourth chemo
was not as bad as
the three before
and
she
and we
are so grateful
because now there are
two to go
and than
hopefully
she can go on
*
being 28
and deal with all of this
on her own unique way
*
being her mother
has been
quite a journey
*
She is always
so full of life
and happinessssss
*
She brought me
violets
my favorites
*
Hope someone
surprises
you too
