This sweet little gnome arrived in our mail yesterday! He (we've decided he's a he) comes to us all the way from Canada! My lovely friend Kim, from Mothering with Mindfulness, surprised us with him. She had asked for our address a few weeks ago, but I figured it was simply to send us a holiday card. Never did I expect to receive a little gift from her too! The girls just "ooh"ed and "ahh"ed over how adorable this little gnome is (and so did I). They then asked who sent him and I told them about Kim and where she lives. Right away Grace said: "Oh, the country with the maple leaf on it's flag!" Thanks so much Kim for thinking of us. He will surely be a well loved addition to our family. I hope there comes a day where we can visit in person sometime! Oh, how simply fabulous that would be!
Yay, he arrived. So glad to hear he was welcomed so beautifully by Grace and Emma.
ReplyDeleteAnd please tell Grace she is more than welcome to visit "the country with the maple leaf on it's flag" anytime...there is always a place here for your guys to stay.
Oh my goodness, thank you so much for your sweet gift! He has been sitting on our table and we've enjoyed dining with him during each meal!
DeleteWe'd love to plan a trip to Canada sometime and please know that you are always welcome at our house too should you ever want to take a trip "south"!
Love the little gnome:-) I also love the winter spiral picture above... such a beautiful tradition.
ReplyDeleteIsn't he such a sweetie?! Thanks for the compliment on the winter spiral picture. We attended our first last year and it was just magical! I was so grateful that the hostess let me take a picture after the fact!
