darling...

yesterday, gabrielle of design mom featured a t.ruffle print on her sight. it looked very pretty over there.

especially when paired with her post title...gift guide: darling things.

in my ever-eloquent fashion, i shot her a mail packed with some of my best. words. ever.

i think it went something like YOU'RE darling! and i believe there was a WHEEEEEEEE! in there somewhere.

{sigh.}

so so so many of you have shown much love for t.ruffles. that thrills me to no end. because i've been telling anyone who will listen that all i really want to be is an artist. and as soon as i figured out that probably definitely would never happen? i begged a real artist to let me write all over her art.

for the record? mary ruffle always says yes to me.

in case anyone was wondering, i have other wishes. i would like to dunk a basketball. like, with mad panache. i'd love to play the violin. i'm trying to learn all the words to o holy night. that song guts me every time. no matter who's singing it.

i've got more. i wish someone would unpack for me. i would also enjoy a beach holiday. and i wish i could tell each and every one of you who's been so sweet to me and mary and our shoppe...thank you. it would maybe sound like this...




found and giggled over this at least four times since maggiedammit showed it to me and all of her other fans. and today's photo over at the sweeterie just about made me cry this morning. i think i've some words to do it justice. xoxo.

That is the sweetest thing ever, your words and this video....which my sweet hubby showed me this morning because a friend of ours said it reminded her of him. Which it does, reminds me of my hubby mixed with our littlest ones. hee hee. This little one has mad skillz on the uke though! Right?

You're so incredibly sweet. I have to thank you for posting my site on kirsty. It means so much to me that you like what I do. I think the closet I come to artistry may be my baking. Maybe. And I completely break down when I sing O Holy Night. There are a rare few songs like that that I can't make it through. Luckily, I made it through that whole video -- oh my golly, that kid is too cute.
