My grandmother asked me a few months ago what I wanted for my wedding present from her. Well, she's an amazing china painter, so I asked her to please paint me a tea set.At the Kerrville shower last weekend (which, by the way, was the hugest blessing! I mean, wow.), this was the centerpiece for the refreshment table. I glanced at it at first, not realizing that it was for me. Then I realized that this tea set looked awfully familiar...
The card says "This tea set is a gift from Laura's Grandmother Jo. She hand painted it when Laura was 4 and they have enjoyed many tea parties since."
Let the tears start flowing!
You may remember this tea set from a post from this past summer when we had a tea party with one of Grandma's friends, Helen.
Wow. I can't believe she gave it to me. Wow.
What's been your most meaningful gift?
