I like the picture frame layout, too.<br /><br />I personally feel that it is good to see positive “pretty” things in a world so full of evil so we are reminded that there is still good in the world. I do think these times call for simpler posts with an acknowledgement of what is going on in Connecticut by sharing our sorrow. When we continue on immediately after without a thought about the tragedy on our blogs, it seems kind of shallow. In a way, I feel we have a responsibility as “public” spokespersons. <br /><br />With that said, I so appreciate your words as well as your chalkboard wall!Bonnie@Creative Decoratinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05539828540957021075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-21242962768749125442012-12-17T19:32:47.041-05:002012-12-17T19:32:47.041-05:00Sarah, your post is so fun and cheery.
