I just wanted to take a minute at this season of renewed hope and gratitude to personally thank you for your visits and kind words, especially with the loss of my kitty Angel. I wish I could convey to you how much your continued friendship means to me. You're always so generous to share a big part of your hearts passion through your wonderful posts. I look forward to each and every visit. I've no doubt we've got a lot more blogging fun in store for us.<br /><br />My hubby lived in Japan for a couple years and I had a gear friend from Japan so we have a affection for all things Japanese. The best time was when we had Japanese exchange students. I adore your dolls!<br /><br /><br />Sweet Wishes,<br />SaraSara's Sweet Surprisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17684005124533629561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-883123415723934494.post-42123901988432234322011-11-09T18:46:13.614-08:002011-11-09T18:46:13.614-08:00Martha, I remember this beautiful tablescape.

Because of your touching thoughts in your post, mentioning that you thought of all the time it took for that person to hand-stitch the runner, and for another artist to paint the fan. Only a kind, thoughtful person would think of that and cherish the pieces. And I also know you are thoughtful because you visit my blog and leave comments! :) You don't know how much I appreciate it. You are a gem, Martha!<br />Best regards,<br />GloriaGloriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089446185793581415noreply@blogger.com
