the things that make you smile

Erin Meagan makes wishes, writes on post-it notes, hangs tinsel from the ceiling in magical places, takes photographs, dresses up, collects sparkles, writes secret notes to her fairy friends, makes memories on swing sets, fills her belly with ice cream, picks daisies, hangs onto balloons, reads and creates homemade books, drinks lemonade in tea cups, loves cupcakes, blows glitter kisses, analyzes poetry, fills her days with music, dreams of Hogwarts, dances for the irresistible quality of loving life, uses improvisation, sings to starry-eyed strangers, sketches lacy drawings of umbrellas and snowflakes, adds sprinkles to doughnuts, spends hours in bookshops, cuddles with magical friends and dreamers, puts ribbons in her hair and dances in the rain, devours chocolate truffles and biscuits, sits on floral bedsheets and reads storybooks, believes in fantastical things, and sees your voice.
A few lovely bloggers asked if they could see some pictures from the photo shoot that I mentioned in the last post, and so here are two of them for you to see. If you want to see the others, go to Rae's blog (cheapthrillsss.blogspot.com) and look around for them. She is a fabulous girl, and I'm excited to see her tomorrow again.

The most adorable teeshirts here. Especially the one that says: hello there how are you? i hope you are doing well if you are managing to read this then you are amazing and i love you more than anything else in the world.... :) http://johnnydurham.bigcartel.com

I loved playing this years back. So much fun playing Mash. http://dollarshort.org/mash/


I recently had a big burst of performances for singing groups, and I just wanted to share a picture of one of the more casual performances with all of you. The girl on the end is Bev, who some of you may know from her illuminating blog (a-bev-blog.blogspot.com), and I am next to her. Emma (emmaisenthused.blogspot.com), is also in the photograph. We all make a fun jazz group.
Are any of you excited to see the Tony Awards?!
Have a great weekend!
