Dear Friends,First of all, I want to say, "Thank-You" from the bottom to the top of my heart for your loving and supporting words when I had a hard time in my last post. Today, when I dropped Bronwyn off at school, I had an amazing surprise! The photographer had miraculously gotten a shot of Bronwyn in between her wiggles and seizures, and guess what? the picture turned out great! I honestly think it might be her best school picture yet. I feel like such a dummy now.
I have been VERY busy with holiday orders through my shop (YIPPEE!!!) but I got a nasty computer virus before the Thanksgiving Holiday, and that made it pretty tough to stay in touch as much as I like to. Now I am back online, thanks to the genius that is my husband, and am trying to get caught up. I have lots to talk about, but I will try to be organized about it and put it into several posts so that nobody gets overwhelmed! For now, I would like to celebrate Bronwyn's great school picture, and remind myself that things do work out in the end, one way or another.
Here's a sunny little wallet that I recently made. I call it "Satsuma Lace." It reminds me of an indoor tea party situated in front of a giant picture window. It is cold outside, but warm within. There are fancy sandwiches with no crusts, little satsuma oranges, delicious hot tea, and good friends. And even though our pinkies are turned up while holding our fancy tea cups, we're doing it for fun.
Outside my house it is sunny and frosty, just like my story.

Yay! Gorgeous photo of a happy, beautiful little girl.
Such a great photo of Bronwyn! It really captures her spirit. I'm so glad that incident had a happy ending.
What a wonderful surprise! Bronwyn's bright, smiling face is so beautiful I have tears in my eyes. I am thrilled for you!
Yes, I have been smiling all day. It's so funny how things worked out in the end.
Colleen, Bronwyn is awesome! So gorgeous! That's such a happy photo - I don't recall my school photos ever being so full of life, and so natural. I love it. :) xoxo
I am happy that you have a good pic in the end - she looks so cute! :-)
What a treat to be greeted by Bronwyn's winning smile when I opened your blog...at first I thought this was the concession photo you took back at home, but when I found out it was the real school photo I was totally impressed. I bet Bronwyn loves it and has quite the memories of that day, and how her Mom got all freaked out for no reason...I can just hear Bronwyn saying, sheesh Mom, it was just a school picture, no biggee...can we go to the mall now?
Thanks, you all! I do love the fact that the photo is more candid than posed. And Julia, you're totally right!
She is very happy! lovely photo!
=)
Thanks, Flavia!
