Yes, there were tears in my lunch spaghetti!
A parcel arrived at my door
and, when I opened it....
and, when I opened it....
I cried.
I was expecting this gorgeous tussy mussy to arrive from
Adria, Pam Kellogg's sweet mother.
Pam has an etsy shop where she sells
her work, and that of her mother and her sister.
However,
when I opened the box and
peeked inside,

THIS!!
Adria had made a tussy for Gypsy too!!
Yeah, I cried. Jack had tears in his eyes too. Overwhelming kindness quite obviously runs in that family! What is even more amazing is that Adria is legally blind and she is still able to create such lovely work - obviously she's a pretty amazing lady.
THANK YOU SO MUCH ADRIA!!
***edited to add: For those of you who don't know, Odin and Gypsy were our dogs, both of whom passed away since January.
These are wonderful. We now know where Pam got all her talent!

Oh how thoughtful and sweet of her! They look beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat an emotional lunch. What a beautiful gesture.
ReplyDeleteAww that's so thoughtful isn't it.
ReplyDeleteIt seems we have them for such a short time - they take over our lives just as other family members do (and don't answer back)!!
Love your post
Take care

So sweet and sad.
ReplyDeleteAwwww! Wonderful pieces and lovely gesture!
ReplyDeletehow lovely...
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful heartfelt tussies, they really are, and I am so sorry for your loss, I can't imagine how hard it has been for you this year. My heart goes out to you.
ReplyDeleteI had just finished reading Adria's story about getting her dog and then went to your site and found this. Between her story and these pics I am crying in my morning coffee.
ReplyDeleteI just received one of her Autumn ones and she does beautiful work. Unbelievable - she is a very strong woman.
Hugs to you and Jack.

ReplyDeletesuch a beautiful comment yes Pam and her Mom are wonderful people. I hope this brings you much joy each time you look at them. Hugs Linda
ReplyDeleteHow lovely that they should do both pieces for you. I remember feeling overwhelmed when a blog friend sent a portrait of Willow. Such a lovely lasting reminder.
ReplyDeleteAs for my son and my smile? Thanks for the comment and I'm so happy you could feel it too.
