Quietly

Quietly encircled by love

I've learned, as a mother, sister, daughter, wife, that the communication of touch can be very healing, not only for the receiver but for the giver. Quietly is meant to be a very calming piece, especially for a mom. A lot of people think this piece is a mother with two boys, but I see it as either. ( actually, my models were two little girls with short hair!)

I saw my first Willow Tree in the local gift shop. It was me and my two sons. The boys looked like they had the same amount of years between them as my boys. I feel in love with that figurine. I told my family about it. I went to the store often to pick it up and look at it. I was amazed at how you could see the love on their faces and yet they didn't have faces. All the figurines were like that.

I made sure everyone knew what I wanted for Mother's Day. I was actually worried that I wouldn't get it. But I did get it and I loved it so much.

Now I ask for the figurines all the time. I love them. I think that Susan Lordi must be a special person to be able to make me feel the love and kindness when I look at the figurines.

I now have 12 figurines and 2 gift boxes and plan to keep collecting.

I was given this piece for Mother's Day. my little girl picked it, saying it was her and her little brother both giving me cuddles.
She has a great way of interpreting all my figurines and they are normally the same way I see them.

This piece gives me a calming, loving feeling. My boys are my life and this masterpiece reflects on a loving moment shared by mother and sons--one to be cherished for a lifetime.

The piece, Quietly, was bought for me by my husband after the birth of our second son. I was absolutely delighted with it and I look at it every day, as it reminds me of my boys. My husband has since brought me other Willow Tree figurines and they all have a personal meaning to me. I love them.

I have often purchased Willow Tree ornaments and figurines for others but never really considered collecting them for myself. Yet this year, when I was shopping for one for a friend, I found Quietly among the shelves and it immediately spoke to me. In November of 2008, my second child was born with Down Syndrome and it has taken some time for us to grieve and heal. Seeing this Mother hold both her boys so close, reminded me of the true gifts that I have been given. It holds a special place in our home and a special place in my heart. Thank you.

I really enjoy this piece. I am using it as a Christmas gift for my mother in law... both her boys are grown now and but I'm sure she appreciates the return to quietness as she admires the gentleman her boys have become--one of them being my husband!
