Great and Small

It may always be the big things that get the attention of the world and garner acclaim but it remains the small things that define a life.

Around BBP things are busy as the great annual clean out and organize has almost been completed. Imagine cleaning out your closet at home times 12, and without the joy of finding a pair of cerulean peep-toe slingbacks you thought you had lost! Always a necessary evil that feels good when it is over and always brings about a huge flush of even greater creativity and accomplishment. It seems not only fair but wonderful that when moutains need to be moved to storage or taken out to the trash that the weather has been mild and delightful. Now, if I could really and truly find those pumps things would be splendid!

We're about ready to head out to one of our favorite wedding shows of the entire 'wedding show season', that to be held this Sunday at Windows on Washington. Nancy, Ethan and the crew at St. Louis Bride Magazine always put of a great gala that is highly regarded by both brides and vendors. If you are going to be at the show, please stop by--- we would love to meet you!

As one of those things that makes you remember what is important in life, and great or small causes reflection and a stir to some sort of action was my news on Wednesday. It seems my brother has had a crisis of health and will require a liver transplant. Big stuff indeed. My note to self remains that no matter what your plans are from planning a wedding to building a family, from running a business to punching the clock-- life is precious and short. Extremely precious and extraordinarily short. As always, count your blessings... and pass one on.
