This year I participated in Dolce Vita's Annual Ornament exchange hosted by the lovely, new momma, Micaela.
I was paired up with a lady named Jo of hey, jo.
{Thank you, M.}
I am not sure it could have worked out any better.
Jo and I have a lot in common.
Good and bad stuff.
One thing is we both lost our Dads.
It was an instant connection.
In ways I cannot really explain.
And not just because we both lost someone so dear to us. It's more than that.
I mean, she has a blonde, pixie cut.
Remember my pixie cut????
Below is the ornament she sent me:
She found it and thought it would be perfect and she was right.
It's just like my tattoo and it is hanging on our wall since our trees are about 6 inches high. ;)
I love it and look at it each and every day when I wake in the am and when I close my eyes to get some sleep in the pm.
Thank you, Jo, for your kindness, your love and your thoughtfulness.
OH and please send your congrats to my new pal.
She just got engaged!!!!!

Dude, Jo is awesome! And she sent you such a sweet ornament. Totally a perfect pairing.
I love her too and oh man did she do a perfect job picking an ornament for you. It's so sweet and so pretty and so Summer. So glad you two got each other. I got Micaela and Marianne's sister in law and she sent me sweet, sweet ornaments! I love and miss you.

That is such a cute ornament - and yes, totally perfect for you :)
Thinking of over there in NYC at Christmas time Summer, I cannot even tell you how much I am hoping that 2013 is going to be a good year for you, you deserve it and I am truly sad thinking of all the hard times you have been through. I often think of Daddy Butch too, his face always makes me smile.
Love and hugs to you sweetheart,
Simone XX
