The Weekly Story ~ 51


Who ran to help me when I fell, 
And would some pretty story tell,
Or kiss the place to make it well?
My mother.
~ Ann Taylor



Thursday was mom's birthday... so we had a mini celebration!! Its only at moments like this, I sit back and think how lucky I am to have her with me... my best friend forever... *smiles*



We also had our first Navratri celebration ~ Navratri literally means 9 nights, and these are 9 nights of fasting and celebration of Goddess Durga. Read more on Navratri ..

We danced the night away... and it was lovely to spend time with close friends and family... *smiles*... The small blessings of life... *smiles*

    hi Patricia - Ive been reading your blog for a really long time now and I love this concept of The Weekly Story! I have a food blog - not a decor blog..can I share something I post there for this? It is usually (well, always) a recipe (obviously) and theres always a little story about me in the post and the photographs are yours trulys? Let me know!
