For those who don't know, Dharma knows how to knit. Link
And with her sweet thoughtfulness, she knitted by baby daughter an adorable little hat.

And so Dharma, for that I wanted to tell you THANK YOU! Anyone can throw a card into the mail, (although most people don't anymore...but a handmade gift means a lot to me. It says that you took the time to think of someone other than yourself and give up your time and energy to do something to make someone else happy.

It came at a really great time too. My sweetie leaves tomorrow for another 4-5? months in Iraq and I am still having a hard time accepting the idea that I have to give him up again, just as I was really getting readdicted to having him here every day. It's nice to know that there are other people out there who care. So thank you again.

Oh good, I'm glad it got there okay......does it fit her?

I was wondering when he'd be off again....I'm sorry that he has to leave so soon after she arrived, but I'm glad that he was there for her birth and had a couple of days to get to know her. 

Have you thought about having him leave her the shirt that he wears today?  So she can still smell him?

Anyway, I'm glad your package got there safely...and you're very welcome.  if you need anything, you know where I am.

Dharma,

The hat fits perfectly and is absolutely adorable! (That's amazing since NOTHING else fits! She is too big for premie stuf, but just drowns in 0-3 month clothes.)

I will try to post some photos soon!
