We couldn't afford all the boutique baby decor, so I improvised.

I never read it as a child, but I learned about it as an adult reading books on the critical interpretation of children's literature. It's deeply touching to know the lengths that animals will go to protect their offspring in real life or in fiction. I salute good mothers everywhere.<br /><br />Emily from EtsyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-56892957976628534452017-05-16T04:53:48.303-07:002017-05-16T04:53:48.303-07:00@Mim

There's a goose that has nested for the past few years in a flower pot outside the maternity ward at the hospital! Everyone jokes that at least she chose the right place.

Look at you in your shorts and gypsy top - it must have been a lovely day!<br /><br />I love your floral dress and I think the brooch is fab idea and so useful; of course you must have lots of brooches for that very purpose in all colours and sizes...I agree with Vix; florals on a dark background are very striking.<br /><br />The mock Victorian bracelet is rather lovely as well.<br /><br />Your local centre sounds like a brilliant place and how great to encourage children to take an interest in nature. We need as much of this encouragement as possible as we may not have a nature at all in the future.<br /><br />I'm learning lots of new (to me) American words since I began to read blogs. What you call a blind we call a hide but I knew exactly what you were talking about! <br />The goose nest box is rather strange - I thought they nested on the ground? Maybe this is the Trump Towers of nest boxes!<br /><br />Hope you have a lovely week.Vronni's Style Meanderingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17122302881528071270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-49460210752983159492017-05-15T10:34:43.054-07:002017-05-15T10:34:43.054-07:00I love florals on a black background, they're ...I love florals on a black background, they're far edgier and more gothic.

Happy Mother's day to you as well. <br /><br />@Radostin<br />I'm so happy to see your beautiful outfits. I've bookmarked your Instagram, but I can't leave comments as I don't have (nor want) an account. You have great style! Happy Mother's day to you.<br /><br />@Melanie<br /><br />And the wildlife, but the bison are such slackers the fish have to do all the work!<br /><br />@Ann<br />We've both gone a long way from practical brooch purchases but we can still claim they're useful.<br /><br /><br />Goodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17383404429461423998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-24105485727731388682017-05-14T11:17:43.316-07:002017-05-14T11:17:43.316-07:00I love your dress, but then I am quite fond of bla...I love your dress, but then I am quite fond of black, flower printed dresses. I remember buying my very first brooch for exactly that purpose: holding a top closed. The earrings are delightful. I also love the bag you're wearing with your second outfit, it looks a bit like one of mine.

We were driving along a lane yesterday, where I have often seen jays and even said to Andy that the jays are usually just about here, and right on cue, one swooped down, grabbed something and flew back into the trees. Such lovely birds, though very different from blue jays.<br /><br />I thought you said the refuge was managed by fish for a moment!<br /><br />Happy mothers day to you, hope you're having a lovely day xMelanie Folly Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11714445701351287394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-49697214137525978202017-05-14T01:26:52.417-07:002017-05-14T01:26:52.417-07:00Also, the American Duchess (contradiction in terms...Also, the American Duchess (contradiction in terms?) shoes are fantastic!<br />BTW, a comment I once made long ago ;) prompted you to ask when I'll start a blog of my own. I prefer to leave more of my leisure screen time for consumption, but have started posting outfits on instagram ( instagram.com/jessiejessyg/ ) Haven't posted that lace suit yet, though. I hope you don't mind this comment, I wouldn't have made it without yours.Radostinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05891397765534930525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-61884621298682602562017-05-14T01:08:32.721-07:002017-05-14T01:08:32.721-07:00That is a perfect example of a dress, very nice in...That is a perfect example of a dress, very nice indeed.<br />I love your necklace.<br />Happy mothers' day!Radostinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05891397765534930525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-22945066250977885822017-05-13T21:59:56.625-07:002017-05-13T21:59:56.625-07:00OOPS & Happy Mother's Day!OOPS & Happy Mother's Day!Bibi Maizoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07383381158640915162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-55281704446670341192017-05-13T21:59:26.158-07:002017-05-13T21:59:26.158-07:00I had a floral dress similar to that in the 90'...I had a floral dress similar to that in the 90's. Wore it til it fell to pieces!<br />It always amazes me how brilliantly blue the sky is in your photos. And how unbelievably flat the land is. The last time I saw a sky that blue in my native California was as a child after a week of rain. The sky is that blue here in Nepal (when there's no ag burning, a dust storm, or clouds) but it sure isn't flat!<br /><br />Live that squash blossom turquois necklace you bought yourself!<br />Bibi Maizoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07383381158640915162noreply@blogger.com
