    Well, now. I’ve been reading your blog since…. I’m not sure. A year and half? Maybe a bit longer? I started reading it around the time you met Meg. So maybe quite a bit longer. (I’m not that great with time frames, can you tell? 🙂 )

    To be honest (and because it’ll make you happy) I actually mixed you up with Tiny Twig for a long, long time. I read your blog on my phone which is SO not a smart phone and there were no graphics at all, just words. Eventually I realized that it was you, not her, because her website is actually too complex for my poor little phone. 🙂 But I think your web address is still saved under the name “Tiny Twig” on the old cell. Ha!
