best day ever

good morning everyone! i hope your weekend was peaceful, restful and productive even if that meant enjoying some down time. that’s exactly what it was for me. for the first time in the past couple months it’s not about deadlines, obligations, and averting crisises.

Hi Claudia – are you serious about the books? ;-) Because we are heading to Paris in June and I was going to go ahead and order one. I had gone by Barnes & Noble to buy one and they said they didn’t have it in stock and couldn’t order it. Well, geez, no wonder brick and mortar isn’t doing as well as Amazon! Anyway, I’m just as happy to show support by ordering a copy as I am to get one by mail from you (although a signed copy is something special)!
It’s very sweet and generous of you to send them – but again, if it doesn’t work out, I think we all understand that!

The photo of the two little kittens lying down are the most beautiful and precious photo I think I’ve ever seen. This is softness, purness, love, Godliness, goodness and every other wonderful and beautiful thing this picture represents at least in my eyes. Thank you to the person who took it and also for sharing it. It made my day.

Those kitties melt me ~ imagine nuzzling into those warm fluffy tummies! My Ella lets me do that but I proceed with caution {and a keen awareness of not outwearing my welcome!!}
