Thank you so much for sharing such a beautiful story and gifts. My Spice absolutely loved the zebra dress and the nightie! She wants to know when I will be getting them for her!

Seriously- picked jaw off floor right? Can you believe it??!? Amazing and thoughtful and beautiful- and that she wrote that sweet story and made a slideshow to go with it?!? Over the top. We are so darn lucky and we know it. I wanted to include a list, in case anyone missed some of the amazing in the video and slideshow. I voice texted as I surveyed the amazement, I think I went through and caught any errors voice text may have applied, here it is:

We received a beautiful coffee cup inside of a matching box with a lid and a bow we received a cool drink cup that was Yorkie themed themed, a Yorkie car magnet, a Yorkie Christmas ornament two bags of nice treats (Lilah loves them both!) a personalized blinged out jar of ponytails a fabulous hat box style storage container personalized with Swarovski capitals and a fabric decal that matches are amazing handmade quilt with Lilahs name embroidered onto it, a sparkle coated box with beautiful bows inside, a fabuleash which is a sparkly fabulous dog walking leash. A squeaky pig toy, a purple sparkly dog squeaky toy, a light up pink studded bouncy ball, own special story typed out with a fairy princess picture, a pajama set which is a pink heart nightgown with a bonnet a zebra themed clothing box with interchangeable black skirt and bow with a matching hot pink and black necklace and matching zebra bow inside of a zebra print cosmetic purse. We received a cottage themed box with a lacy rose printed dress a pearl necklace and matching bow we received a coronation fabulous dress with sparkles and sequins and indescribable decal beaded detail and interchangeable skirt and matching bow.

thank you, your post really makes me think, on one hand some people (LOL outside of my doggie friends) think I am crazy to make all this stuff for a dog and then give it away, but on the other hand I enjoy it and it gives me pleasure to share it with someone other than myself. Life can be filled with lemons and just today I had some sad news about a friend, but if we or I can find joy in something "silly" like this we should seize that chance and just smile

Donna, her words capture my experience- what you created, the story book fairytale princess dream could not have reflected us any more accurately. Life can be so hard and I know I myself have had some pretty rough times. Over the last couple of years in particular I have found a lot of joy and beauty that I had been overlooking or maybe forgotten about and I have jumped in headfirst and whole hearted to relish in it. A practical person, so I thought, found flowers a waste of space in my garden but now I am surrounded with them because I decided to be the sweater I am wearing right now is adorned with sequined angel wings; my love, he planted me a row of cherry blossom trees and I blow bubbles with abandon for the experience of watching them swirl like the pink petals of my trees. My pajamas are soft and satin and I know that every moment can not reflect that sparkle, that sheen, that magical feeling but dangit- I will work to create as many beautiful moments as I can, to celebrate and revel in every fantasy dreamlike joyful celebration I can. You showered us with sparkles and satin and decadence and celebration, I could not feel more like a princess surrounded by all of these special things for MY special girl that you blessed us with- I really cannot say enough for how delighted I feel, how caring and considerate you were while you crafted this special collection for us and how precious this experience and these special gifts are. It really means a lot to me and it is something I will look back on with delight, forever remembered. Thank you so much

Thank you yes, he is and Donna, he was blown away by Lilahs gift

And Ann...omg, right?!? Lol.

Today was a spring festival at my children's school and I dressed up in a flowy dress and was handed a flower crown and a flower staff with flowing ribbons while the children danced around the maypole- I thought of all the things we had talked about, choosing to make life a fairy tale and I smiled and had a great time playing princess...
