butterflies galore

By now, you must have seen this very creative bouquet. If not...check out this wedding. One of Lily's best friends is moving away next week. We will miss the whole family terribly. Lily and her friend have gone to school together since preK and we even live in the same neighborhood. This bouquet gave me an idea to fill a box with silk butterflies for her and have Lily write on the tag.....like butterflies, things change, but we'll always be friends.

p.s. okay, i think i'm channeling butterflies....i just took a quick break to tuck lily in for the night and she had on her butterfly nightgown that she hasn't worn in a long time. but then she says to me, it's butterflies galore tonight....i'm thinking yes, yes it is. (i hadn't told her anything about the idea yet and she hadn't seen what i was writing) does that sort of thing happen to you....it does to me...all the time.
