Good morning! Yesterday, no matter how hard we tried, there was no way to avoid "making" our youngest cry. For me and the bearded one, it was a great financial and space saving decision....stepping into an upgrade. For our son, it was us giving up one of our family members. Our dining table. We "downsized" it and it allowed us a more intimate setting and oddly enough resulted in a good turn around financially. Now of course, this could be the launching point for him to design a business around making and selling harvest tables in the future
....but in the moment, I chose to bring him face to face with the family that was MORE than grateful to receive the table. 11 KIDS FOLKS!! WOW! A beautiful blended family filled with love with be eating and sharing at that table. It was a gift to make it back from the open houses in time to meet with them 
And yes, this table is transitional for us...we love the idea of being ready for welcome and hospitality (and we are with our fold outs), but for now, it is time to embrace the blessings of new and treasure the lessons of the things we let of and move on from.
Enjoy this beautiful day
