Xingfu means happy and blessed in Chinese. Even though 2014, the year I started this blog, was a busy and, at times, difficult year that is the word I thought of for this space. Mama not because I have many children but because I seem to fall into a caregiving role. Sometimes I feel like Mama to the world.
The name XingfuMama means Happy Mama with undertones of being blessed.

That’s how I think of pussy willows. I saw a few brave catkins emerging today as we walked the beach.
Our world took a turn toward the white this week. I took these pictures a couple of days ago. Now the flowers are totally buried.

There is a folk song called “Bring me a rose in the winter time”.
Bring me a rose in the winter time, When roses are hard to find. Bring me a rose in the winter time, I've got roses on my mind. A rose is sweet most anytime, and yet, Bring me a rose in the winter time How easy we forget. Bring me a smile when I'm far from home, When it's hard to find. Bring me a smile when I'm far from home, I've got smiling on my mind. A smile is sweet most anytime, and yet, Bring me a smile when I'm far from home, How easy we forget. Other stanzas are: Bring me a friend when I'm all alone.... Bring me a kiss when my babes are grown.... Bring me a love in my autumn years.... Bring me peace when there's talk of war....
