A praying mantis holding up Christmas lights, just part of a collection of Christmas gifts I’m getting ready to post to friends in Australia . It’s a tradition I’ve kept for years now.
Sending odd Christmas decorations in the post….its comforting as it is regular .
I had lunch with Chis Eleanor…soup and a cheese panini and we put the world to rights.
It’s lovely to be called darling, several times…in a conversation .
It’s a treat.
I wish it happened to everyone, every day
To be referred to as someone’s darling,……
Who needs a praying mantis holding Christmas lights? I do!!
ReplyDeleteYes, having someone call you darling, knowing they love you. Everyone should have that. xx
What an adorable decoration!
ReplyDeleteHugs to you and the furry ones.
Stay safe & well, John dear.
What a cute decoration and am sure your Aussie friends will love it! My dear Aussie quilting friend and sister died in early September and I will miss her forever.
ReplyDeleteYes, endearments like 'darling' warm the heart.
May the rest of your day be as joyful as your lunch with Chic Eleanor!
Hugs!
Hugs!
The door-greeter at the store I do groceries once a week always wishes me at leaving: 'have a wonderful day, darling'. Last week I told him I always look forward to hearing him say that. It makes my day .. and I think that made his!

DeleteI'm imagining how fun it must be for the posted ornaments recipients, Whatever did John send this year! Great tradition. And the P Mantis is great.
ReplyDeleteThat is one great and very original Christmas decoration.
ReplyDeleteI'll remember to incorporate more "my darlings" into conversations. Up to now it's only been Handsome, Gorgeous, and Sweetie-pie. And I know how good it feels to be addressed in these ways.
ReplyDeleteI love the mantis decoration!
ReplyDeleteAnd to called somebody 's darling. A precious thing
Cute 'n whimsical!
