new friends from japan

well to all those folks out there who never comment on a blog, yes i lurked for many months before commenting too! all i can say is look what great friends you find and the connections you make when you write a simple comment on a blog you admire...emily,elizabeth and i hooked up with diane, anne-marie and elliott who are americans living in japan and what fun we had exchanging letters and gifts! our first real swap and the girls loved their gifts and letters. i was really thrilled with a japanese crafting book diane threw in for me, thanks so much!! hope you like our "thrifted" gifts!
