Good Monday morning...or afternoon should I say, as I started this post this morning early and then had a phone call from a friend...."could you, would you....how soon can you?"
Her niece is turning 17 whilst they're on their family Vacation. My good friend D bought a beautiful leather bound travel journal for her and asked if I would add an insert for the opening page. So we spent 1 1/2 hours chatting and finding out exatcly where she was off to. I sketched and sipped tea...and this is what became...they're off to London for a few days and then to a beautiful Villa in Tivoli for 3 weeks...prime location 30 minutes outside Rome...they'll have a wonderful trip!
I was thinking I would at least be able to log in and post a couple of times this weekend...but time flew away with me...The girls had their recital,too cute...
Little Miss J loved her little butterfly costume and did so well on stage...she even smiled...
Little Miss A was graceful as ever and remembered all her moves.
ONE very proud Mama here!

question: how would you describe sweden?
ANSWER::Sweden is a place where tradition is the root of all who live there.
The Swedish people are like the Italians and Spanish in many ways, they enjoy looking good and well put together.
They have a strong sense of design and style.
They LOVE nature and are a very free nation.
This is everything I get from my family who are Swedish, I went there many years ago...and would love to take our girls and my husband one day.
QUESTION:: where and how do you see yourself in 5 years?
ha, can i answer the favorite pair of shoes questions? ;)
A: in five years i see myself with my own restaurant somewhere back in canada. i will have at least one baby, maybe two. i will live closer to my family, and spend a lot of time with them, especially my little brother. i will spend summers at our cottage on the river and take trips back to denmark when we can!
Q: would you rather be able to read peoples' minds, or put thoughts in their heads?
fun game! best, sar
to answer the "read people's minds" question...can I pick neither? hehehe...that's cheating I guess. Well, I really don't want to know people's personal thoughts-so I guess I would try to put happy thoughts in their head??
fun game xo, abby
ah wait-I'm supposed to pose a question, right?
I'll recycle the book one..."what is your fave recent read?"
ANSWER:: Ah, yes, that one was skipped...so I'll answer it...
The last book I read and really enjoyed was " A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Khaled Hosseini...brilliant read...lots of self reflection at the end and gratitude for what we have in our Lives here...
