Bathtub Grottos

I love grottos – especially DIY grottos – and especially, especially bathtub grottos.

In our magazine Woolgathering, I wrote about growing up with grottos and bringing Mary flowers in May – since it is her month in the Catholic church. 

According to my Grandma, May is also her month. She said it was her month because she celebrated her birthday, mother’s day, and her wedding anniversary. 

Today is, in fact, my Grandma’s birthday. She would be 108, and she’d want you to celebrate her today by appreciating flowers, eating ice cream and chocolate, and by listening to the birds. 

Happy Birthday Grandma! 

Happy May to everyone! 

Soak up the flowers, birds, and ice cream this month!!
