image via clear north...Given the current circumstances, I thought it would be helpful to my state of mind (which continues to improve, thanks in part to all your immense loveliness yesterday) to revel in some goodness. Practicing gratitude was, after all, one of my 2011 goals.
So herewith five things I am thankful for at this very moment:
- The green curry that lovely cousin Erin brought over for dinner last night.
- The peals of (genuine) laughter (not the usual laughter followed by fighting) coming from the girlies' makeshift sleeping quarters in the den this morning.
- My tinyDallas partners -- I am immensely grateful for those lovely, smart, funny, kind ladies.
- Watching Audrey and Bryan painstakingly construct a LEGO house last night which lead to a marathon session on the Internet looking at Frank Lloyd Wright’s architecture. Man, I love those two together.
- This post... it's just so right on. You are a wise one Elizabeth!
Ok and now, as promised, the final "Beach Week" giveaway that I completely dropped the ball on last week. The lovely Meg and Teresa, the ladies behind one of my all-time favorite kid's lines, Kit + Lili (the girlies wear their K+L dresses non-stop), have offered up a sweet size four "Franny" dress in lavender leaf stripe...pictured below. (It could also be worn as a top by a five or six year-old.)
Just leave a comment on this post by Sunday, May 1st at Midnight CST, and I'll announce the winner on Monday.
And, without further ado, some of the things that inspired Meg & Teresa as they created the Kit + Lili Spring/Summer 2011 collection.

Light -- we love how the sun rays stream in our studio/office.

The Beach
Girls -- they love to twirl, spin, skip, jump, somersault & have high tea!
Prints from Past Collections -- apples, waves, leaf stripe, hearts & fish...

what about as a top for a 26 year-old? possible? v.v. cute.
Oh, I love this sweet little dress. I agree that I'd wear it, too!
I'm with Erin. I'd love that little dress for a grown up. But a suppose Emerson would look adorable as well. Great giveaway.

That dress is beautiful. I love how it twirls on your girls! Thanks Joslyn for your sweet post. I think we have to pinch ourselves a little bit each day to wake up and take it all in, good and bad!
Beautiful dress....I know the perfect little girl that turns 4 in a month that would just love it....my niece Lili.
my daughter passed by me looking at the purple shirt and said "wow".... and she is very picky.
Thanks for the chance to win.
Oh, I would love this for my (gasp!) almost-five-year-old!

Kit & Lili rule. It's just the truth.
Perfect size and color!!! Love it! What a great clothing line.

I've had my eye on this dress!! Lila has the Christine dress in Clover and it is one of her absolute favorites - Kit & Lili is the best!
That dress is so adorable. I always love the clothes I see your girls wear.

Thanks for the giveaway despite the flood. I have been eying Kit & Lili since my daughter was born a year ago, but have been waiting for her growth to slow down a little so that I can maximize her time in their beautiful dresses! I hope everything is drying out.
My girls always have to wear dresses so this will be great for them!
adorable! she loves purple so!
