this jar was our paris fund. our plan was to put in whatever we could spare, a few cents here and there, to save up for a trip to paris. you see, my sweet husband has never been out of the country, save one trip to canada. i have been blessed enough to travel abroad a great deal. i lived in paris for a month a few summers ago and have since made it my mission to take him there.
tomorrow this jar will get a new label. 4 small letters: B-A-B-Y. paris is on the back burner for now. don't misconstrue this to mean that we are feeling regret or sadness over this change. rather, what we are feeling is a new sense of responsibility, a shift in our priorities.
i think, when the time comes to save for paris again, we will purchase 3 tickets.
P.S. YOU STILL HAVE ALL DAY TOMORROW TO ENTER THE CAFEPRESS GIVEAWAY! YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO.
Don't you worry, baby sister. We will always have Paris. And maybe you and Travie can do a quick weekend getaway to the City of Love while I get to spend the time snuggling with my new baby nice/nephew!
