Grateful and Gushing
Tuesday, April 7, 2009
Yup, feeling thankful and needing to gush a bit. Realized it after a weekend visit from our really good friend at effiehandmade. She's going through a bit of a hard time right now and I think she could use a boost by hearing how great she is.
Cherry Clutch
First of all, she is ridiculously talented. She has been an Etsy seller for awhile and is definitely our inspiration for the shop. We have frequent coffee dates that work alternately as venting sessions for all of us and business support meetings. We were thinking about opening a shop for awhile and she was so incredibly supportive and encouraging. Not an ounce of resentment because we were stepping into 'her thing'. Come on, is this girl human? :)
And another thing that makes her amazing that I think she could stand to hear is that she is one of the most tolerant people I have ever met. We have completely different beliefs and are coming at the world from very different perspectives, and we have frequent debates about these things, yet she is completely accepting. Never judgmental or disrespectful, she even eats our vegan food without complaint!
We think she's feeling pretty unappreciated right now so we thought it would be a good time for a sappy post telling her that we are so lucky to have her for a friend!!!!
