Happy May Day!


While a young girl in school, I would create a may basket from pastel-colored construction paper that had been cut, folded and pasted . Filled with posies trimmed from trees and shrubs, the basket would be placed on my neighbor's front door knob.
After ringing the door bell, I would run away.
Happy May Day! A celebration of spring.

That is so cute! If I ever have daughters I will definitely make that one of our traditions.
