have a lovely weekend (and a first birthday)

This week has been such a busy one!  I've been confused about what day it is all week long.  Isn't it funny how some weeks are just like that?  But lots of good things happened.  The bathroom sink, toilet and laundry sink are all in and working and the tub has been painted and put in to place.  My garden is miraculously still alive, even with my novice experience. 

And this weekend is a very special one.  Sunday would have been Lily's first birthday.  So bittersweet, but I'm determined to focus on the memories of her life because this is the day she lived.  Memories like holding her for the very first time.

We're still deciding how to memorialize Lily's birthday.  We'd like to mark it as a tiny movement for good.  I think that's what we'll do.  She brought so much good.  It seems right to do good again on her birthday.  Will you help us by doing something kind for someone around you this
weekend?

in the shop: father's day cards

I've added two new designs to the Lily Jane Stationery line, just in time for Father's Day.  The first was inspired by my son's cowboy boots (he's wearing them in this photo).

The second showcases my love for this gorgeous font.  Do you love it, too?

More designs are in the works.  And, as always, 10% of all proceeds from the shop will be donated to March of Dimes.
