Should be done today or tomorrow! Will have photos ready then. So excited to give it to her!

While painting both pieces of furniture, I have listened to both the movie AND commentary to Letters to Juliet & Miss Potter AND listened to 75 episodes of Say Yes to the Dress.
You are making her an heirloom set of furniture! She is a very lucky little girl, PO.

Re: Gabby's

Ignore my backdrop. I didn't want the chair colors to get lost in the entertainment center, so I covered it. Would have used a white, linen tablecloth, but I didn't feel like steaming it. Don't know why the camera date is not correct.

So, glad I am finished!

Re: Gabby's

I have something very special that I just have to share with all of you. I have a little girl in my daycare - her name is Mylee. I've had her since day #1. Literally. I went to the hospital 15 minutes after she was born and got to change her first diaper and hold her for about 3 hours before her grandma from out of town showed up (the parents were fine with that. Even encouraged it!). So, needless to say, Mylee is very, very special to me. But she is 5 now and so will start kindergarten in the fall. We do all-day kindergarten here and then she will go home after school with her older sisters (7th grade and 4th grade). Which means that as of June, she won't be coming here anymore. She is very concerned about that fact.

Today she said to me, "When I start school in the fall, I won't come here anymore. I am going to miss you terrible. I really wish I could start my life all over so I could keep coming here for another 5 years."

Isn't that the nicest compliment you've ever heard come out of a little one!! I just love this little girl!! You all are gonna need to pray for me when June gets here because I am gonna be a blithering idiot missing her
