My niece is turning 3 at the end of the month which means I get to indulge in my favorite auntie task, shop for her special birthday present.
K lives in Pennsylvania, so photos are the only way I can see her on a regular basis. I keep this one of her in her lamb costume posted at my desk- it makes me smile, as does the ‘Bite Me’ cross-stitch (compliments of Morgan Wylie).
For a long time I’ve been eying this metallic, airplane-shaped kids backpack by Zid Zid Kids for her at the Shop and today I broke down and bought it. I hope she likes it! I only wish I could be there as she opens her birthday surprise.
