All I Want for Christmas

…is my two front teeth.  I adore this shot of my nephew, who has finally outgrown the ‘say cheese’  smile and gave me genuine smiles this weekend.  

Goodbye to Tulsa

Thursday, November 18th, 2010

One of my favorite families said goodbye to Tulsa recently. I am still pouting and missing my neighbor and friend, and my daughter is missing her little BFF too.   We took family portraits in Woodward Park before the moving van arrived so they could remember their five years in T-Town.

Smile File

Friday, November 12th, 2010

This image makes me smile everytime I see it.  

It reminds me to laugh, and breathe, and gives me a tiny break from my worries.  I keep it in my Smile File.  I have a folder of photos on my computer that I will never, ever, ever remove because they provide a pick-me-up when needed. 

 When I taught first grade a million years ago,  I had a “Smile File” in my lower desk drawer.    I kept drawings and happy notes from my students  (right next to my emergency Dove chocolate).  Those kiddos probably never knew how much I would treasure their offerings, but I did.  I still do.    

Today, I wish you random smiles to get through the day!

Accordion Albums

Sunday, November 7th, 2010

Accordion albums are my new favorite thing!  They are perfectly sized brag books at 3×3 inches.  Magnetic closures keep them safe inside your purse or bag.  These mini albums come in sets of three for $80.  Many of my clients have received these as gifts as I build up my sample collection of colors and styles.  Take a look:
