putting together a care package for our buttercup.
I cut and I pasted...I researched and I shopped.
It was so much fun choosing and sewing for a girl that now has a face and a name. Here is what I enclosed in a crimson red box Guangdong bound, to our cupcake girl:
Three hand-adorned onesies, a pair of yoga pants to match, a tiny all-American photo album with photos of our nearest & dearest for buttercup, California-made candies for her caretakers, a brilliant teether toy, a mama-made buttercup yellow "tiny wee hoot" and a lightweight waffle weave blanket - perfect for the hot weather in the area where our girl is currently living.
And, Rainbow Socks!
Everything is wrapped up for the mail tomorrow.
And, totally Sealed with a Kiss.
Many kisses.

I am so filled with joy reading the worlds "our girl" - and I know it doesn't even approach your own joy! What a wonderful idea. I love these vivid, buttercupbloom approved colors. xoxo
Isn't sewing for your daughter just the very best kind of sewing!?
I like your adorned onesies and the owl.
Oh Wendy, this post made me tear up! I am so happy for you - and I'm sure your buttercup will be overflowing with happiness when she receives this box of goodies from her two new favorite people! What a lucky little girl she is to have you both as her mom and dad. *dances with joy*
MUSTARD (ish) OWL! :D
I'm so giddy with happiness for you, this is the most amazing exciting thing ever, ever.

That owl will steal her heart until her mama and baba get there. I remember doing this for Z and it felt so good. Congratulations!
