The dress is just beautiful on you! I custom ordered the dress in your favorite colour. for your Birthday. Sorry for tne delay, as with the virus everything is at a snails pace as far as the post is concerned. Enjoy!!!!!

The dress is gorgeous. so well made and perfect for Stephanie.

[@jorothwell7908]

Just woke up here in Australia to see Stephanie brilliantly read my Aloysius story. She has the most articulate and entertaining reading ability. What she didn't read out was my explanation for the very crude photoshopping of the pictures. My regular illustrator is busy painting another of our One Yelpy Kelpie books and so didn't have the time to do this one. The pics were accompanied with my notes to give the idea of what could be. Thrilled they enjoyed. xx

SUGGESTION: With things being difficult at the time. I would like to suggest donating to the food pantries in France, Any Local food pantry. France. In total, around 3.5 million people rely on food banks in France. One provider, the Banque Alimentaire has over 100 branches in France, serving 200 million meals a year to 1.85 million people.

Thank you, Hanni, for choosing Alzheimer's research. My mother was diagnosed in 1995 with early-onset Alzheimer's at the age of 51. Watching her struggle through that disease was awful. Anything that goes to research lessens the likelihood that this terrible disease will affect other mothers like mine in future.

[@paulineholder2072]

Jana Miranda My mother also had Alzheimer’s and watching her progress through the disease was horrific. Thank you to Hanni for choosing this charity.

[@HeavenlyImaginings]

I will have to join in chat next time but 5am is not much of a chatty time for me. This was truly delightful. Stephanie, you may not feel like your videos do much but please never discount what a safe haven amidst a storm can do. You give us respite from the harshness of everyday life, You, your family, friends and Guests make us smile & laugh and bring us all such joy. That may not seem like much but in truth it is everything. It can honestly be the difference between making it through a dark day or not. Sometimes seeing joy still existing reminds us the sun will shine in our own lives again. Not sure I explained myself well here but I do hope you understand the point I am trying to make. Hugs

💞Yes, all the personalized gifts were enchanting! 📚The glamorous period gown, the charming book on Aloysius, the lovely journal, the amazing lavender potpourri items, & all those amazing books. ☕The design on those mugs was beautifully done. They captured both mother & daughter likeness perfectly. Loved their color choices too. Hard to pick a favorite amongst them all. 👑Loved the pop colors & crown on the aprons & the pillows for Stephanie & Mummy. 🚨Can't wait for the others to get their prezzi's. 💎While not personalized, the gift of all that amazing jewelry (ear rings, bracelets, etc.) was rather outstanding too. This lovely giver was sweet to send enough for all volunteers, Annalise, Marie Paupin & more. (Although 😿Cat's more over-the-top reaction for the printed card stock that came w/them was kinda odd. Sure, she can pass the pretty ear bobs on for all the interest she demonstrated.) 🎉The elegant lamp & those Spode items were simply gorgeous! Loved the outstanding plates as well as that stunning cookie jar! 🌱Love Mummy's gardening tools, gloves, seeds, & adorable wheelbarrow too. ps loved the 💙Disney💚 surprise. I'm sure Marie Paupin will be thrilled w/it too.

I grew up watching Naughty Marietta with my grandmother. It holds such a special place in my heart. I’m so glad it was gifted to you - I’m sure you’ll enjoy it!
