Favourite Days

January 28, 2013

The days leading up to Christmas are some of my favourite days of the year.

Secret presents are in the midst of creation. The doors are closed. The air is full of conspiratorial whispers.

Shouts of NO!Don'tcomeinhere! ring through the house. And the glances that hint at the secrets shared with some but not with others are seen from time to time.

I was a target of a few of these secret afternoons. Emily monogrammed towels for the entire family. Geneva made me a felted coaster. She must know how much I love to have toast with my tea. And Agatha made me a beautiful set of earrings. There's nothing like the gift of handmade from the creative minds of those three cuties.
