i got this sweet suprise in the mail yesterday and it might have made me cry. a little.

Tuesday, October 4

First, because I'm pregnant and that's what we do.
Second, because I'm a designer and can only IMAGINE how long it took to put every little perfect vintage-y detail together. The printing! The gluing! The stamping! The tying! Makes my head kind of swim.
And third, because it feels so wonderful to know that this little boy is already loved so much. Not only by Tys and I, but by our wonderful family and sweet friends {both old and new alike}. So thank you SO MUCH Airiel & Jennah for your thoughtfulness. I can't tell you lovely ladies what it meant to us!

And also, to all of you who have expressed so much support, encouragement and well-wishes for our new little family, we truly THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts. You are the best kind of sunshine.

Although I regard myself as a spiritual person, I find the Mormon religion quite hard to digest. Having said that, I followed your link and read the entire speech and it really touched me. So I want to say thank you for sharing that. I am sure, like me, many of your non-mormon readers enjoyed reading and watching it and without your link we wouldn't have ever been exposed to it.
ps. that is an EPIC baby gift!

October 05, 2011 5:00 AM

Ok, the little bottle for the babies first tooth is what got me. I wish I had a bottle for all the teeth that fall out around here, seems like someones loosing a tooth every week, lol!! This is such a cute gift for such a cute family, sweet!
