Who knew all this would happen afterwards! I used to write several blogs, but thought just concentrating on one would be easier for me and my readers. Sorry, it ends up having several topics in each post!

Sweet miniature roses

 Another birthday present.



Why, you might wonder, is that black welcome mat up against the wall? Well, I noticed it was shedding when I wiped my feet on it, and bits of black were coming in the house. Enough said.

I'm enjoying finding more ancestors on my tree. This week I discovered another mother of a great grandmother times seven, or 7 x great grandmother. And they were still in New England, though one of the fathers had been on the Mayflower. Will have to share that with my grandkids, so they can say so in case that comes up in conversation. Right!

  7. Pretty flowers! I once read some estimate of the number of descendants of persons who arrived on the Mayflower and it was astronomical. One of my Hemenway ancestors lived in the Massachusetts colonies but we have not traced him back any farther than that.
