you mustn't...

miss this, that is.

now. i rarely give orders. unless your name happens to be lillie. and unless you haven't worn your retainer in at least a week. and unless you haven't even {gag} brushed it in as long. then? i order. plus maybe threaten.

{by the way. if your name is lillie and you haven't worn your retainer in at least a week and you haven't even brushed it in as long and you're not living in my house? well. then i am sincerely sorry for calling you out. this is awkward. let's move on.}

i think i probably know a few things about you...

you're probably creative. you're probably very very good at something. whether you know it or someone else knows it or no one knows it yet. and maybe? you're probably a bit of a dreamer.

i could be wrong. it happens. like, at least seven times. hourly.

but. if i'm not? if you're dreaming of something different? today or tomorrow or next month or as soon as esmé goes to school? then you should check this out...




and if you live near me in the northern virginia/washington dc area? then you should check this out...

i'll be there. so will she. i like her smile, don't you? say yes...and let's hang out. {and that's not an order. it's just a sweet request.}

this is mary ruffle's workspace before she works. i've begged her to snap a pic of her space after she works. we shall see how she responds to my order. threat. sweet request. whatever. and xoxo.

That sign is perfect advice. Just perfect. Now. If I could just find a way to make my own messy handwriting more like art. Less like mess. No fair!
