Family Gathering
Holding her own.
Felt like pure gold.
Love thick as honey,
Poured golden,
From one to another.

White ironstone? First of all, the photo is stunning, excellent job. Secondly, I have never heard of white ironstone. But now that I have, I am in love. Off to google now, bye bye!

I can't believe your mother collects "white stuff"...I have so many white creamers, pitchers...gravy boats...platters! In my opinion...ya just can't have to many white dishes!
Such beautiful thoughts this morning, Corey!

A mom's love is thick as honey, isn't it? I have to remember not to let it smother those I love the most!
Love the picture! With all of the shadows and stark lights, you really should print this one!
