Return on Investment

Dear Jodi,

I'm back. It may be because you made your child ride his bike for miles on end this morning, or simply due to the fact that I like to keep you on your toes. Either way, let this be a lesson not to take me for granted. Your son is soon-to-be three, you know. These are things that you must come to expect.
Enjoy your hour.
Sincerely,
Nap time

Acorns and Such

I've been wanting to find a "nature belt" for Carter as on our walks his pockets get full of rocks, acorns, sticks and the like pretty quickly. Thankfully the sewing machine came at the right time.
And for the brass pelican.... One of my favorite pieces in the house (besides my vintage napkin ring collection)... courtesy of Grandma Brown. I love little pieces of her life throughout our home.
