Silent gratitude isn't very much to anyone. - Gertrude Stein
This past week I've been the lucky recipient of some wonderful gestures of friendship from blogging friends. Jamie drew a delightful "cat" version of me. I received these lovely trees in the mail from Paige - thank you so much!
You may remember Patricia drew an illustration as a gift for me and my family. Yesterday I received the original artwork, along with presents for the family, in the mail. Cal promptly got to work making a fingerprint Santa from his gift, Ed Emberley's Fingerprint Drawing Book. (If you haven't seen Ed Emberley's drawing books, they are a fun resource for children.)
Thank you so very much, my friends!

Lecia,
oh -the joy that you bring to each day, fingerprints and all.
I just knew that the boys would enjoy those, and now you shall never look at "fingerprints" alike!
So glad your little fingers are enjoying the early easter presents!

I want to do little finger paintings with Abbott and Cal. Those are very, very cute!
That Patricia, she is one that is full of surprises-Easter and every other day.
How wonderful. So very sweet.
What lovely gifts, we love the Ed Embereley books here too.
Oh My Gosh, I just came across your blog and LOVE it !
I myself use a Canon Mark II 5D, but more importantly, I am thrilled to have found your blog. Love what you have to say--lifestyle, food, parenting. Its all great ! Happy blogging !
There is nothing better than handmade- and having been on the receiving end myself a time or two, I know how much it means!
You're welcome - I'm so glad you like the little trees! Personally, I'm loving the last photo right now...
Oh how sweet! I love those little fingerprints-in-the-making!
Charming! I love those little trees; does Paige have an Etsy shop?
Our little blog buddies are treasures. I treasure each of you every day... xoxo
Thanks everyone!
Patricia: we can't thank you enough! I can't wait to get your illustration to the framers. So, so thoughtful of you to think of the boys.
Becky: no Etsy shop, but she may have posted a tutorial for these earlier in the winter.
Those trees are adorable!
isn't that a delightful thing about this community?
