the red plate

As I was washing this plate this morning, I was reminded of all the occasions that it has come out of the box and placed on our table. I love my red plate. My mom gave it to me the year Mallory was born, and I love that it is part of our family on our very special days. I love that the girls expect it, and I love that Jillian remembered to get it out for me to use when she cooked Mother's Day brekky yesterday.

awww, we had a You Are Special plate growing up that I LOVED and now we continue the traditions in our own little families. I think Kiji has that exact same red one, actually. :)

Kirstin beat me to it...we also have a plate. wWhat makes it so special for me is that Mark's mom gave it to us to match the other pfaltzgraph pattern of dishes that she gave us. All the other plates, cups, etc. are gone but we still have this plate. so on special days, it is twice as special to use the plate.
