Happy Belated Birthday Mom!

I’ve been a bad girl.  When I say “Happy Belated Birthday” – I really mean inexcusably late, like maybe I should save it till next year late.  My mom’s birthday was July 11th – yep, I’m 5 months late in finishing her birthday gift.  Spank me now.

No excuses really, just procrastination to the extreme.

After all, I carved the linoleum back in June and after looking at my original files, I constructed the boxes on June 9th – which would have given me a month to finish her gift.

This was even bisque fired in Sept – so I’ve had plenty of time.  Mom, I’m so sorry and I hope you know that I love you!  I’ll pop this in the mail this week.  Think of it as a Christmas appetizer – xoxo :)

Till later,
