Lovely and touching


A couple weeks ago , a lovely lady from the UK contacted me asking if she could buy a little muffinpie for her little girl. We made arrangements and she chose Marion, because the doll reminded her of her little sweetpea ( this is how she calls her child Esme) Esme had to give up on her dummy and it was a painful moment to let go of something she really loved. Then she got sick and mommy thought sweetpea needed some comforting. Marion arrived this week after a long journey and she and Esme have become very close friends. I will let you read the whole wonderful, touching story by visiting Zoe's blog.
This is one of those story that make you laugh and cry at the same time. I was very touched, knowing that i had brought joy to a little girl's heart. Take a moment to visit Zoe and Esme's little world. Zoe makes delicious muffins too ♥

Have a happy day all ♥

I find it so amazing when I go down a rabbits warren of blogs on the net and see what people make. I love your creations.

Yesterday I sat making paper dolls with my youngest and I found it so satisfying and it took me right back to me childhood. As a 'he' he wouldn't make a doll, but then he saw robot and decided to make that with me! he he.

After reading about the little muffin pie doll over at Scented Sweetpeas blog I thought I really was going to buy a muffin pie too! I then saw Katia of Pomme d'api and had to have her! I can't wait for her arrival!

Hi Monique, just read Sweetpeas story and it's just wonderful...I read the last one too! The sense of magic and mystery in a child's life, like how Zoe creates for her children is what makes us doll makers keep creating.
