guests for tea

we had visitors for afternoon on Wednesday.
our lovely lovely cousin A + aunty S.
as M declared just the other day "I love aunty S".

the kids picked some flowers from the backyard, and made a very beautiful arrangement on the back table. isn't it lovely seeing how they can be so beautiful, and how they can take care to make things look special and think about the look of things. rather than just plopping it down.
cousin A told he me especially picked the one long piece of grass, as it looked good.
the yellow blooms in the blue bottle - singing to my heart and eyes.
how lovely to have garden flowers on our breakfast/lunch/dinner/coffee table.

*the cups on the wall are from the toast catalogue, and I just wrote over it in some simple program or other.
