Gifts that Click and Clack

Little Miss

23 Nov
Pictures from our September visit that I didn’t post and I’ve been thinking about her a lot today – I guess since that video popped up… The Little Miss came through the back door with flowers and tomatoes from her garden.

She doesn’t realize her gifts to me of 15 minutes to visit are such a blessing to my heart; but she arrives with hands full. On our way to the Chesterfield where I placed her yellow cup of picked-them-herself-flowers on the tiny table, she asked me how many plants I had in the house and when I responded I didn’t know, she thought it would be fun if we counted them together. ♥️♥️ We didn’t stay on the Chesterfield long at all this visit.

We started out in my Jesus room looking for plants and she was intrigued with the tangerine colored ottoman that belonged to my grandmother. She had so much fun when she discovered my tambourine and tried a few scarves that were tucked inside and commented on whether or not they were scratchy. 🧣

Then it was off to literally every room in the house where she counted the plants, and I must tell you – I have more plants than I realized. lol 🪴

It was while she was counting all the plants in Victoria‘s room that she found the vintage red pumps that belonged to my mother, and our somewhat quiet searching for plants turned into the clickety-clack of her little feet trying to keep up with the bigger-than-her-heels as she was prouder than a peacock in those shoes. 👠 👠
img_3076img_3075 img_3076 img_3077
She tried out the salesman‘s recliner, got sidetracked by the diffuser – as always; but she clicked and clacked, and then she threw her leg back in pure delight so reminding me of her current age and a time when our youngest did that same move at the salesman’s brothers wedding while wearing a fancy white scratchy dress.

Oh the joy and delight of childhood. The Salesman has said so many times that the little Miss reminds him of our youngest and for the first time her standing there with her leg bent back, I agree with him though he wasn’t here. Of course, had he been here there would probably not have been clickety-clack going on cause the whole thing doesn’t quite go together with working at home; but the Lord carved out the quiet and the clack this particular day when he was out selling. So here I am reminiscing on a Friday night about a visit from a couple months ago from a little girl who visits in increments of 15 minutes as allowed by her parents and somehow it takes me back to think of my grandmother, my mother, and my daughter, and my desire to have grandchildren. I spoke with the mother of the Little Miss in the grocery store aisle and she thanks me for our visits and my writing about them. We cry in the produce aisle as we acknowledge our mutually beneficial relationship. I tell her I know she is not my grand-daughter; but I thank her for sharing her daughter and 15 minutes with me. Gifts come in all different shapes and sizes and can be quiet or clicking and clacking, gifts of the present can bring up the past and give such beautiful hope for the future. And the Lord knows this personal hope of mine for grandchildren.

I have never seen anything like what I saw when I I have never seen anything like what I saw when I walked in Walmart this last week. 

Right there where they normally have fresh berries and Grainger county tomatoes and such, was a Valentine’s Day floral display the size of an above ground swimming pool. 

And I wanted to dive in the deep end. 

There were blooms as far as my eye could see and there was no way possible to get every one in the picture, though I tried. 

I wish you lived in my town and we’d go enjoy them together. 

It’s going to be a beautiful Valentine’s Day! 

Scroll right to see the biggest display ever and a few colorful, and beautiful, bouquets.

“Sometimes you have church in buildings that don “Sometimes you have church in buildings that don’t have steeples” is how I’d describe my visit to the hair wizard this week. 

💗

God is so good to intertwine cousins, curls, and church. 

💗

Amen and amen.

♥️ ♥️
I’m carrying forward the childhood joy of openin I’m carrying forward the childhood joy of opening my Raggedy Ann lunch box to find mama had cut my sandwich out with heart shaped cookie cutters.

♥️

It’s the little things.

♥️

I got my mama’s heart shaped cookie cutters out & am serving love & beauty with heart shaped, & heart healthy, Trim Healthy Mama Blender Freezer Waffles. Shout out to the organic Aldi raspberries that appear to be heart shaped as well!

The waffles are Salesman approved. ♥️

I make an entire batch of the waffles & keep them in a refrigerator box so he can grab them just like a L’eggo My Eggo & enjoy the convenience of healthy, & now heart-shaped, waffles.

You can see the Salesman’s legs in the background of one of the pictures of me trying to capture the perfect picture of the heart shaped waffles.  I stepped out on the back porch, which is right outside his office, and he came out to see what I was doing.  And let me tell you, he had a good laugh seeing me trying to get the picture perfect shot of my plate of love!  After he ribbed me a bit, I told him that I really enjoyed taking pictures, & he then shared a nugget, or two, about the photography industry.

This is us. ♥️

This is me carrying on a tradition my mama started of making sweet memories for holidays & special occasions. It did not cost any money to use my childhood cookie cutters, it was just a sweet, and delicious, investment of time.

The most beautiful memories are tied with heart strings & not purse strings. ♥️
