Bright sayings on signs and towels and all...

Bright signs:  Seems like wherever I go - to flower gift shops and craft fairs,  the hot items are bright sayings on wooden signs, garden stones, tee's, silk screened hand towels, and of course, greeting cards...bright sayings too numerous to mention here. 

Today, bright sayings on  

potholders at HollyhockJunction.

In her back pocket - half in and half out,  are two dolls,  Barbie and Ken.  At first, I think they are a novel decoration  fitting for the occasion. 

I say to her,  "The Barbie and Ken add a bit of whimsey to the day."   

"My daughter needs them there," she laughs, "She won't let them out of her sight."  She points to one of several small children nearby who are helping her clean. 

Proverbs 31:18  Her children rise up and call her blessed...

Proverbs 31: 24  She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.
