best. mail. day. ever.
Yesterday we were out in the driveway with some friends and a handful of little boys having a "Popcorn Stand."
The mailman came by while I happened to be inside and handed J a big stack of mail- bills, letters, junk mail- the usual stuff. He told him he'd be back. Bless his heart, the little guy thought he was coming back to buy popcorn, but instead he brought me these:
Look at that! All in one day!
The top one was some adorable hand-me-downs from Jennifer and Katie to N. The middle one was packed full of fabric, a craft book, and activity books for the kiddos from Melissa. The bottom one came from a reader named Rane. She emailed me one day to ask if I'd mail her a copy of the smocket pattern and look what she sent as a thank you- a HUGE box of fabric.
THANK YOU, ladies. You blow me away.

I hope it all fits! Obviously the dress/headband are for next summer.
