I have several very old children's books from around 1887 or so. The images are so beautiful and the writing as well. As I've not been very good at sharing new things I've made lately, but I do want to share with you these sweet images! Just click to enlarge and right click to save to your computer. The poem is just wonderful! Read about making your own bird Christmas tree HERE ~
I also want to share with you the name that Brent and Emily have decided on for our sweet granddaughter!!! Her name will be Madeline Clara Edmonson ~ and she will be called Clara .... our sweet baby Clara!!
Wishing you a wonderful Wednesday sweet friends!
xxoo, Dawn

Being a grandmother is such a wonderful thing! Words can't quite describe what it feels like ~ although one that you like comes close.
Being a grandmother is pure BLISS!
I'm so excited for you!
What an adorable baby photo but and even more enchanting name for your sweet baby girl. I know your anticipation is building at meeting her. There is nothing quite so grand as being a grandmother!
The names, both the formal one and the short one (Clara) are both so old fashioned and wonderful!! I love them...and that baby photo is sooo pretty!!! Have a lovely day :)
Congratulions on little baby Clara! As you know, being a grandmother is a very special gift! What a precious name.
Being a new bird lover, I love this post with the old bird pictures and Christmas story.
Oh Dawn, what a beautiful name for your grandbaby!! I've also made a Bird Christmas tree before. This year I sort of have a bird them going on in my office trees. Happy Holidays, T
That is a lovely name for your sweet granddaughter! The Birds' Christmas Tree is a sweet poem. Thank you for the sweet thoughts and images! Merry Christmas! :)
Clara is a very sweet name. I hope to experience what you are one of these days! I already told my boys that when they start their families to send me granddaughters!

Everyone said it so well...Clara...how very sweet. I like Madeline, as well, just in case they change their minds. Both are such classy names!

What a beautiful name your son & daughter in law have chosen.
Being a bird lover (like you) we have a tree just outside our kitchen window that is already strung with cranberries and orange wedges. Hopefully the squirrels will leave something for the birdies :-)
Dawn, we all know how busy you are getting your family 'settled in'...PLEASE do not feel pressure from us to post your creations if you haven't the time..you are keeping you priorities straight and being a wonderful example to me in doing so!
Thanks for sharing your darling images. And how exciting to know the beautiful name of your sweet baby granddaughter!!

I'm sure she will be just as beautiful as her name!
What a WONDERFUL name. It is perfect! You must be so excited having them come to your house. You will be the perfect grandma.

Oh Dawn, what a beautiful name she has. Now we can put a name with the beautiful face you shared with us! Little Clara is already so blessed. I'm sure you are glad to have them all safely there with you!

Dawn,
I love reruns, especially her at your wonderful nest! Thanks for posting them.
Isn't it wonderful how we fall in love with our babies before we even know them. Clara is loved, her name is really sweet, just like she is. Won't it be fun to post her first picture. That will be a special gift for us out hear in Blogland.
Hugs, Mary
Oh, Madeline Clara is such a beautiful, beautiful name--you are going to LOVE being a grandmother, Dawn! I cannot tell you enough how wonderful and rewarding it is--I imagine a Victorian production of "The Nutcracker" when I think of the name of Clara--so sweet. XOXO, Jann
PS--Where did you find this gorgeous photo?
Hi Dawn,
I stumbled on your website first seeing the posted poem "Among The Trees", and I fell in love with the artwork and the poem. I wonder if you could tell me the name of the book, the author, and when it was printed. You have so many treasures on your website! Thank you for sharing.
