From A Year With God
On the first day of May we love to make May baskets. It is one of many traditions we delight in to create A Time to Keep for our children. However, this years there is no roses in bloom to grace our baskets. But, to our enchantment, as if it new that this is the beginning of the lovely month of Our Lady, a single bud on one of our peonies slowly unfolded throughout the day into this magnificent flower. This single blossom on the first day of May is like a sweet promise of the many more to come during this glorious month of Mary.
Like so many friends inspired by Alice, the queen of crafts, we made a Marian May Cone for Dominique's godmother.
Again, just like last year, the children made greeting cards, this time using lovely scrapbook supply. Dominique also made one for his godmother to give with the May cone above.
