My daughter is transitioning from her crib into a twin bed and this post came at just the right time. I ordered the around the world set and it is gorgeous. I got it yesterday with a lovely handwritten note. Even better is that they are located in Oakland which is just an hour away, so I can refer my friends. Thanks so much!!! :) I just wanted to say thanks for blogging this. :) I loved Anna’s bedding so much.

I have been at the point with my first daughter where I tried to rush things along. though I loved her VERY much, I was just too young. I was a single mom, and I was always looking to the future, trying to rush things, instead of enjoying the present. This is why I really feel like it's so much better to not rush and have children too young. Because, and I'm not saying this is the case for everyone, but it has been my experiences and the experiences of a lot of people I know, that a lot of times, you just are not "settled" enough to truly enjoy the ride. I had my first daughter when I was barely 22. ALL of my friends were single, and while they didn't really party, per se, they did have every kind of freedom in the world. And it was the hardest thing for me. I pushed my daughter off on my parents a lot (though I was with her most every day all day) so I wouldn't have to miss out. Otherwise I felt cut off from the rest of the world. Isolated, alone, sad, broke, single, depressed. Though I loved my daughter with all that I had. So anyway, long comment, but I totally feel you on this one!! :) I love all of those pictures that you took from that barn place! My kinda place. And the pictures of your little muffin are adorable!! I'm loving the polka dots too! I was totally drawn to the pics with the polka dots in them. Amber Oh my goodness, I am so feeling you on every single thing that you said in your post.
