Helen,
Can we call it the Loveliness of Motherhood and have it be the first Loveliness Fair of the year? I really love the idea!

For the Loveliness of Motherhood, I thought I would dedicate this post to those who don't have blogs but would like to contribute a thought, a practice, a tradition related to "good mothering." Please feel free to use the comment section.
Everyone is so busy this time of year, I'm sorry to add one more thing. Hopefully, this is an easy request since Christmas is a time which lends itself to remembering family and the importance of Motherhood.
I hope to make one more post this week about the carnival.

The Carnival is up:
Loveliness of Motherhood
My usual disclaimer ... I'll probably have to fix it.
Happy New Year!

Beautifully done Helen! I especially appreciate the virtues subtitles.
For those of us whose own mothers (for one reason or another) were not really able or willing to mother, these glimpses at good mothers are invaluable. I've spsent my lifetime looking at how other mothers do it in order to be a better mother to my children. This fair is really a priceless treasure.
