I loved being able to work in the shoppe today, while my own little toddler got some much needed mommy free playtime.
I loved eating Northstar for lunch.
I love our city.
I love our neighborhood.
I love watching people.
I love spotting crafters. Seeing a bag, a skirt, a dress, a toddler shirt, someone made, with their hands.
I love knowing the genuine sense of self worth that making things brings.
I love knowing that we are serving and so connected to our community. This wonderfully talented community of creators.
I love the definition of the word creator;
creator |krēˈātər|noun
a person or thing that brings something into existence.
creator |krēˈātər|noun
a person or thing that brings something into existence.
I love meeting our sweet customers while out and about.
I love commenting on their wares.
And I love this little Henry. In his electric blue glasses. The ridiculous cuteness!!!
And that great shirt! I know that fabric. I know that pattern.
I had to say something.
And then his wonderful mommy (and shirt maker) Alex let me take his picture!
I only wish I had had my real camera with me, I'm still not quite comfortable with my new phone cam. A bit blurry but it did the job.
And I love it!
Thanks Henry!
It was great meeting you April! I am rather proud of that shirt. I only wish I'd bought more of the fabric so I could make my partner a shirt to match! Twin-sees! The picture of Henri in the sunglasses is great!- Alex
