after last weekend's event which allowed me to experience one of the very low ends of human behavior, i got to experience the very highest of it.
we have received such a huge outpouring of love through this little trial we're going through. i have gotten some of the sweetest texts, emails, and twitter/facebook/instagram messages from friends and strangers a like.
people have brought treats to our door, dinner to our kitchen, flowers to our living room, and tears to my eyes with their kindness. my brother-in-law even said i could borrow his camera for awhile.
it's alway been hard for me to accept help from others (a trait i got from my mother). i feel like i've had such a blessed life and i don't want people "wasting" their service on me when there are others who need it more, but i'm trying to learn to accept it because sometimes i do need the help and i'm probably just too prideful to admit it.
so, thank you for your support, it's almost silly how much it means to me.
i really love you all and i love experiencing how good people can be.
you are each an inspiration. i wish i could give you every one of you happy flowers and hugs and perpetual rainbows in your kitchens. but since i can't, please accept my sincere and abundant gratitude.

It's a great feeling to feel love from others.... especially in times like these. So glad the treat helped bring a smile to your face.... and breakfast ;) haha!
XOXO
I just came over and caught up and my stomach dropped when I read what happened! Oh goodness, I am so sorry Ashley! That is such a freaky, scary, sad feeling. And your camera!!! I love your little blog over here, and your attitude (about this, but all the time), your clothes, your hair, and ESPECIALLY you magical unicorn finds.
You certainly have a great attitude about the whole thing, you deserve the love and support. I've seen a ton of giveaways for DSLRs lately. I feel like you've racked up enough good karma to win a new one :)
you're the best. thanks jen!

Good luck with everything! And I see you were gifted "The Little Prince". Best book ever!
Do I see soap nuts in one of those baskets? I have always wanted to try those. Let me know how you like them.
