    all so good!
    I think one of my favorites you posted was about the Buzz Lightyear doll at Christmas time...

    I thought of 'poor five' a couple weeks ago when my little turned 6.

    Thanks (again) for sharing your beauty.

    I just wanted you to know that you give something very special to your readers. That your honesty to strangers means something. That I appreciate you even though I don't know you.

    Thanks for sharing these beautiful things.

    My favourite ever was the one where Ezra lost the butter (or was it margarine, I don't remember). And Buzz Lightyear. I tell that one to others like it happened to me.

    i'm a new reader but your work does really resonate with me. as you celebrate your "five" and i read your reasons for getting your blog started, a wave of "familiar" comes over me. i'm new to all things blogging but started for reasons similar to your own. wanted to say this space of yours is wonderful. thanks for sharing!

    I love your blog. Really, I love your blog. and on your 5 year old blog....in Morocco and the Arab world, 5 is one of the most important, magical, protective, powerful numbers. And even by saying it can ward off the evil eye. So may you have a year filled with all sorts of good things, including strangers leaving cupcakes on your door.

    I just started to read your blog from the beginning (I'm a recent Hula-ite), and so have just recently come upon some of these. They are wonderful, indeed.

    I loved this list. I love when a blogger points us to their personal favorites. Your heart is right here. And a lovely heart it is, too.
