Surprise!!!

What a cute surprise I got in the mail today! Helen from Hugs and Kisses sent me this adorable armchair helper! My husband was almost as excited as me to see it, you see I use the couch arm for a pincushion on a regular basis.... you can guess why he says living with me is like living with a porcupine. Helen, how did you know I needed this? Can you see how well it matches my chair cushion in my studio? !!! A warm thank you from my heart goes out to her!!!
Helen didn't forget about my five little ones, she sent them these really cute koala's and some Boobie Buttons to keep them busy. We had to have a long conversation about koala's! My four year old loves to clip them to his shirt and have conversations with them. They have all recieved names, meet Joey, Sandy, Bobby, JoJo, and Rocky who is not pictured because 4 year old is too attatched.
Thank you Helen, you are a sweetheart!

On another note, I attended my first 9/12 meeting last night. If you have not been yet, and you are concerned about this country... GO!!! What a wealth of information and support this community has to offer. You may be only one, but you can make a difference! Especially when we stand together. Freedom has a price, are you willing to stand and be counted with us?
