  5. Lovely rose, and a happy birthday to the mother of Oona!!
    Hey Oona, this probably goes without saying, but if you discover any fabulous fabric shops in Seattle, can you let a girl know? I will be visiting in October... :)

  6. This is Oona's Mom using Big D's id because I've yet to figure out how to post here. Computers and me don't work well together.
    I'm sorry I'm so late to respond daughter "Oona", you know how lax I am about getting online.
    Thank you so very much for the happy birthday and to all of your friends who posted here!
    Oona amd Ruggy sent a very amazing technicolor birthday gift to me (it was like opening up a rainbow) and the grandkiddies made flowers in all the colors of the world!
    That is a lovely rose photo, I think I need more Seattle pictures!
    ( that is whenever you get the time, I know you are super busy right now)

  7. HA! When I first read 'Momballoona' I IMMEDIATELY went into a frenzy, thinking you were pregnant. Erm, sorry. Must be something in the air with all my friends pregnant and JuliaBobbin too.

    Happy birthday, Real MommaBalloona. Thank you for raising a beautiful, brazen, bold and uniquely spirited person who shares herself with many, and most definitely not in a slutty way!
