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
