This is one of my most treasured spots...
my bedside table...it's close to me at the beginning and end of each day...
it holds some of my most personal treasures...
and things I use daily...
this has to be one of my favorite!...Princess #2's drawing of our family...I just love that I have a "rainbow dress"...large cross necklace...amazing eyes?!...Oh-and I'm quite tall!
I am holding the girls hands... the men in our life are there...
WAY in the back ...and we are all smiling!
This "shabby chic" box holds treasure from Princess #1...
What's left of her dear "woobie"- a.k.a. - her blanket she had since birth!
The little heart dish holds some shells the Prince collected and gave me...
of course, I HAD to have some flowers ... a violet...
This is my stack of books that I start and end my day with... the top two I read in the morning...
the bottom three are journals...
one for each child, I keep funny things they say and do...costumes they wore...activities they did...special conversations we have...ect.
I LOVE looking back at these...and the children love to read them too...
Well, that's the end of my "bedside story"-
Sweet dreams!
&
Many Blessings!
That drawing of you is precious! You are the bright and colorful center of your daughter's life!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea those journals are! Wish I had thought of that! I write about my kids in my journal all the time, but how cool it would be to put all those stories in their own books and give it to them someday! Maybe I should start that...Thanks for the idea!~Sherri
ReplyDeleteMy eyes were drawn to the picture right away.. just love it. I love your bedside table and the special treasure you keep on it. the blanket pieces made me weepy... thinking of my childrens night night babies that they are still hanging on to. great idea about the journals... what a special thing to do

You've inspired me to have seperate journals for my kiddies...I am forever writing things down, but it would be SOOOO special to have it all in a book that I could give them when they are grown!
ReplyDeleteI love your little table....I read that same Joyce Meyer book every morning!
How neat to do a journal for your kids. I love this idea...I think I will try to do this for Lexi..being older and having a another child later in life reminds me how fast they grow up and I would love to be able to remember some of the special things Lexi did and be able to share these with her down the road.
ReplyDeleteLove your table!
Love your bedside table and that cover!! I am gonna steal that journal idea!! Wish I had found that idea about 6 years ago.
