i was listening the whole time for the mailperson who comes right around noon.
and there was my package from iris. our bag swap!
i calmly finished up my lunch then grabbed my camera and headed for the outdoors. only sitting on the grass, under the shade of the river birch, would do, for simple, peaceful pleasures.
pretty yellow tissue with "dragon-fly purple-blue" ribbon...
an amy butler notecard, handwritten...
the cutest, dearest Buttercup, wonderfully small, THE purse for warm spring and summer days in the perfect colors and design with matching buttons ...
lining to die for...matrushka dolls! how did she know i've two sitting on my bookshelves, fond reminders of visits to st. petersburg and moscow...
in blue tissue, hankies, bright, beautiful, hankies! two!...
mail love...
thank you, iris. for your wonder and light.
thank you all who visit my space, sharing your sweet shelves, your creative imaginings, your gift of friendship. to a total stranger.
to give is to receive. to walk hand in hand, on the road, here to there, is to grow peace.
