[x] Oh my goodness, how did I forget to post about this?! Yesterday, I received the most gorgeous ever bracelet from Lori of Perfect Accents. Lori donated a bracelet to the Global Genes Project 7000 Bracelets for Hope campaign; I received one to wear in honor of Little Flower's Septo-Optic Dysplasia. I love it! I am so proud to wear it to show my support of rare diseases and disorders and I can't wait to pass it on to my Little Flower someday. I highly recommend checking out the Global Genes Project, liking them on facebook, wearing jeans in support on 2/28/11, and--of course!--checking out Perfect Accents. Lori, thank you again for the gorgeous bracelet!

[x] Ooh, and do me a solid, please, and vote for Support for Special Needs HERE each and every day. While I'm nowhere nearly as active there as I should be, this community is rock solid and incredibly awesome. One of the site co-founders is one of the most amazing moms--and most amazing women in general--I've ever known. Forreal.

[x] Unrelated side note: Beauty said to me this morning, "Pretty lips, mama! Looking so cuuuuuuute!" Raising my girl right if at age three she already has a serious appreciation for pin-up red lipstick. ;)

[x] Lastly? The bottling went well! One week until we can try our home-brewed beer! I'm so excited! And you should see K.--he's like a little kid with a Christmas countdown. He tried a little sip tonight and while it was obviously flat, he gave it a resounding seal of approval based on taste alone. We shall see... :)

Okay--I'm seriously done now! Night. :) <3
