I just found your blog...it is so nice. I have enjoyed reading it and love your beautiful paper craft items. Makes me want to jump in and start paper crafting. I should start my blog up again. The little squirrels are so charming. I have a cute little clay squirrel beside my desk that my son made in grade school. It's a little primative, but he passed away in 2002 at age 34 and I'm so glad to have it to remind me of his love every day. Thanks for the warm reminder of what is really important.
