Oh! lovely voices of the sky
Which hymned the Saviour's birth,
Are ye not singing still on high,
Ye that sang, "Peace on earth"

How did Ann, and her flea market chic GiveAway that I won over at "The Tin Rabbit" know that she was designing a perfect vintage tattered holiday center piece for my home, and see how well it fit right in. I would love to thank Ann for adding her beauty to my home for the holidays. The moment it arrived and I unpacked it, I let it tell me where it wanted to be placed. You will find it on my chest in front of the sitting room sofa, its the first holiday piece that greets you with tattered charm. What I love about it is when people pass through they take beautiful notice, while capturing there creative eye. Please go visit Ann at...
"http://thetinrabbit.blogspot.com" while taking lessons in creativity. We all thank you Ann, we are so looking forward to all your creative beauty in the New Year!!

ReplyDeleteI'm sorry it's taken me a bit longer than expected to arrive. You see I got caught in some of those California storms. But you knew that didn't you? Why else would you leave me a soft towel by the door? I stood on it so as not to get water on the floor and waited for you. You see "she" always dries me off when I come in after loosing the race to arrive inside before the rain gets me. But as I was waiting, I noticed that you'd also left me some cream. Not just any cream either....WARM creme....ah Dore, I luff mew! So I took a few sips and then threw myself down on the towel to roll around and dry off. Suddenly, I realized that I must have just missed you since the creme was still warm. So I finished it off and then curled up on this wonderful towel. Go ahead and wake me when you get home so that we can visit and I can give you my best purrs of appreciation for your kindness. Purrhaps we can sit in the living room and admire your new treasure from Ann.....waiting for you patiently and faithfully.
Yours.
Romeo

May the road rise to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, the rains fall soft upon your fields and, until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand.
