tangible love...

how do I begin
to thank all of you
for the encouragement and inspiration
you filled me up with
this past year
~~
how
how do I do that
?
all I know for sure
is that without all of you stopping by here
and
graciously giving me the support
that you do
it would be impossible for me to be the person I am today
~
so on this special day
I just want to wish each and everyone of you
a
very merry christmas
filled
with more love and warmth and laughter and sugar cookies
than
you could have ever imagined
and
to say
thank you
thank you
thank you
from the bottom of my heart

  24. First things first Beth. Love you're new header, I like this one the best so far. Wow.

    Then about the mosaic this one's great too. The red's in there does it for me among the cool browns wich I deeply love. (how do you do it to bet it out here so big, whenever I make a mosaic I can't blow it up like this).

    At last the best, you are so welcome. But it's all YOU I want to visit, your words your inspiration your pictures. I find peace whenever I'm in your space. You make me happy, see the world with beautiful eyes, give me new idea's and simply the most wonderful times while visiting your space.
    So the thanks are all send back to you my friend.

    Hope you had the most warm and blessed Christmas and wish you all the best for the new year to come.
    Sweet sweet hugs from miles away,
    Dagmar

  26. Merry Christmas to you, too. Your blog is gorgeous, what an amazing photographic eye you have.

    And yes, we did meet at Squam last year. I think we had a class together and I think you introduced me to the Pogo, which I promptly asked for and received for Christmas and still love playing with.

    Thanks for stopping by. I just tagged you in my favorites so I can continue to enjoy your words and images! Best wishes for 2010!
