~~~site news!!~~~
we actually delayed the
newsletter a few days
waiting for zakk and yo to finish
revamping our prints products area!
oh, you guys! the prints are much cleaner looking
and zakk's got this search thing set up for the prints!
and are you ready?! he's even color coded them!
so if you're looking for a particular print about love,
you find the red dotted ones, want one about the journey?
pick a green dotted print! get the idea???
they've redesigned the whole darn print layout!
how cool is that?!!
we're just squealing with delight over here!
okay, maybe it's just me. but *i'm* so squealin'!! www.bonesigharts.com
~~~~~**~~~~
my buddy amy inspired me just recently, and a new print was
born! amy, you've got one coming your way. thank you for
being in our lives!
alone and shaking, she wondered
how she'd
get through.
the doubts surrounded her, keeping her awake.
but then she remembered. it's all a ride,
a journey,
a dream.
the twist and turns of which she couldn't even fathom.
she closed her eyes and rested.
she'd travel where she must.
not knowing where she was going...
but knowing it was a ride worth taking.

*** this guy sooo reminds me of zakkie bean!
if you're a mom to boys, you might relate!
'maybe offering something to the world
is living wht you would want to offer.
maybe it's not any more than living it.
and maybe that's the hardest thing of all...'
