C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S L-O-V-E
a group of kindergarteners were singing a song called Christmas Love at their holiday program
they all had a letter to hold up as they were singing
One had a C
One had an H
One had an R
and so on.
As the child with the M stood up with her letter, she mistakingly held it up as a W
the crowd giggled at her mistake.
and as the last letter E was held up, a hush came over the crowd as they read the mistakenly held message
C-H-R-I-S-T- W-A-S L-O-V-E
yep...
Christ was love.
Merry Christmas to all...
hope you all have a great holiday
thanks for reading my blog- it is a present to me to have readers and followers.

ahhhh...the holidays...
as I get my tiny little house ready for the holidays...my little aluminum tree comes out to stand on a table...somewhere...(it ended up on my dresser)
and the tree in the living room? yes...this is an indication that my camera is losing it...(asking for one from Santa...)
and I am spending more and more time in here...creating and pricing and dreaming...
did I mention that I am opening a mall space in SPLENDID? that is the mall that is just across the street from STARS...so my second mall space will be open on December 16th...
I so love the fact that the 2 spaces are just across the street from each other in Sellwood...so very happy, I am.
And no, I haven't given up on opening in Eugene...just the right place and space haven't appeared yet...but I have no doubt that it will sometime in 2011...
hope your holiday time is wonderful...
have a great week!

Christmas at STARS...
the last few days I have been stocking my space with Christmas...
not just the typical "Christmasy" items...but books and toys and paperwhites...
but I love the grab bags...great presents for someone or to keep...
maybe it is the colors that make me smile...
or towers and towers of ornaments...
or just the sparkles...
all I know is that I LOVE this time of year!
hope you all have the best holiday season ever!

a peaceful first snow (sort of)
ok...so my husband's car wouldn't start...(he took a cab)
and my doors wouldn't open (frozen solid- son took bus and max to work)...
but as I wander around the yard, with my feet crunching in the snow, I find a little peace in the whiteness of it all...
and although I was going to travel over to STARS and re-do my booth for Christmas, I find that I have plenty to do here...STARS can wait just one more day...
and I take a few deep breathes...
and make hot cocoa...
and Cinderella seems to be so much better...she even played with our other dog this morning...
and life is good.

Cinderella update...thanks for the good thoughts...
well, she kept some rice and chicken broth down today...and seems so much better. Our darling Cinderella will put anything in her mouth...so I am thinking that she dug up something...and her stomach didn't like it.
I'll spare you the gory details, but she does seem better.
If she isn't back to normal tomorrow, off to the vet she goes...
thank you so much for the prayers and good thoughts...
I think "I" needed them, too!
tomorrow...
STARS and Christmas...
pics to come...

Cinderella is sick... (not the Walt Disney one...)
yep...she kept me up all night...(just like a sick child)
my hope is that by putting it out there in blogland that enough people will think healthy and happy thoughts for her that she will get better faster...(cuz I am worried...she has never, ever, been sick before...)
so...if you have the time...happy thoughts for Cinderella, please!

WHAT'S A GIRL TO DO?
Should I sit on the princess chair and read?
should I imagine my holidays?
Should I dream of next year's vacation?
Should I play in here?
should I share a blanket with these two?
Should I sort through my Christmas ? ( I have far too much!)
tomorrow is my first day off in many, many moons. I am not complaining...I have been lucky enough to have done 4 estate sales since August...I am so honored that I have been working with super nice folks...
but...
