No, you are.

This arrived at my door step today.

I cried.

Its beautiful.
The seahorse.
Those words.
Because I certainly don't feel that way.
( but I really want to be)

Thanks to my friend Marie for thinking of me and making my head swell to about 3 times its size;)

If you have not seen these prints before, I strongly recommend that you click on the name "Kal" on my blog list on the right. Kal is an amazing designer/artist and all around awesome person that inspires me every day. She is the cool mom/person I want to be. Far from perfect, but oh so positive. In fact, she coined the phrase"bullet-proof positive attitude" which I often remind myself with when things get rough. Kal was/is selling her prints, and I fell in love. Apparently so did Marie:)

Thank you again Marie. I was simply stunned to say the least. You inspire me too. In more ways than you can imagine.

I am reminded again as to how blessed and charmed my life is. I am surrounded by some very incredible people with big hearts. Friendship has exploded in my life over the past year. I am so so very grateful.

I hope you feel the same about me. But I am a work in progress.

Yeah - I'm happy to brighten your day (and I'm glad it arrived in one piece!)! Lots of tears today for both of us - me at the pediatrician for Kate's vaccines - but we're all okay. Thanks for being my friend.
