Adjustments

Scene: A small bedroom, recently emptied of its contents. Including one toddler’s crib. Enter exuberant toddler. Toddler stops short, looks around the room in bewilderment.

Poppy: Uh-oh.

Toddler reaches down to pat carpet divots where the crib used to be.

P: Uh-oh.

Mommy, trying to sound chipper and comforting: Your bed is getting ready to move to our new house!

Toddler resumes playing. Crib is all but forgotten.

Forward-thinking

I keep reading about this Pay It Forward thing, so I’ve decided to jump on the bandwagon. Here’s the general idea:

I will send a handmade gift to 3 people who leave a comment on this post. I don’t know what that gift will be yet, and you might not receive it tomorrow or next week, but you will receive it within 365 days, that is my promise! The only thing you have to do in return is pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog.

I can guarantee that you won’t receive my handmade whatever today or tomorrow. And I have no idea what that handmade thing might be. Most of the blogs I’ve seen this on have been craft-oriented, but I might not be up to sending out my experimental sewing projects just yet. And seeing as that’s the only crafting I’ve been doing lately, you could be in for something like cookies! Or brownies!
