Pentecost Sunday
May 20th, 2013 by Aubri
A simple celebration of Pentecost on Sunday.
I’ve always liked the idea of hanging a dove over our table on this day so I was interested to learn that this was a tradition in medieval times as well.
Pay no attention that ours is not wooden, but a paper plate dove, “shot” two times and strung up by the neck. I couldn’t find a good way to hang him….sorry.
On Motherhood

Some thoughts and pictures from Mother’s Day. (Late I know, but it’s been a busy week for Mothering!)
“The deal is — Motherhood isn’t sainthood and we’re all a bunch of sinners here and don’t let anyone tell you any different — pushing something out of your womb doesn’t make you a better woman. Real Womanhood isn’t a function of becoming a great mother, but of being loved by your Great Father. Someone write that on a card with a bouquet of flowers. We all need that.” Ann Voskamp
