Yay Hooray! Friday, April 6, is my beloved and beautiful sister's birthday. Ever generous with her wisdom and love, all I have to do is think of her gentle smile and warm hug and the thousands of miles between us disappear. Happy birthday, S. I love you. High five.

Happy Birthday to your beautiful, fantastic and wonderful sister. It makes me very happy to know that the day before "No Housekeeping Day, is her birthday!
Many happy celebrations.
I was reading about April birthdays. I know so many happy April birthdays. The month is started by my Father-in-law's birthday and it ends with my own Father's birthday. In between are some of the most wonderful, loving and beloved friends.
Happy birthday to your sister!!!

Oh I forgot. Gah! I love your illustration, of course! And I love you. TSUP!

Happy Birthday to your sis!
This is so sweet. Really beautiful.
Such a feeling of joy!
Instantly makes me smile.
The words, making me smile and miss my sisters. We are also very far away from each other.
Beautiful colors and the patterns are gorgeous too.
Hallo Bella my wonderful friend, thank you for so stoically supporting me through my darkest days. I am so glad you have a sister, it makes up for so much else in life.
Your posts always manage to make me smile and be happy for a while.
We have just (minutes ago) returned from a wonderful place by the Southern Ocean (484 pictures in 12 hrs.!)
I'll be feeding some through in dribs and drabs.
Hugs and lots of Ces type Tsups . . .
Oh Bella, happy birthday to your sister! You are both blessed to have one another; cherish one another always! Sending you big hugs! :) :)

a high five, ride a ram, w/stars + moon + bells + smiles, + riding together. ((deeeeelightful!!))

This is so lovely. It would make a great music-box, too.
Happy easeter to you and your family Bella
Adorable illustration, Bella. You never cease to amaze and delight me, and all of your bloggy friends. Happy happy birthday to S! If only we had magical flying machine that would zip us straight to our loved ones far away, and then zap us back to be with our families..let's call it the zipzap time machine! I cracked up watching Christopher Walken reading the book..he's hilarious. Thank you for that! And goodness, I'm heading straight on over to download your lovely coloring page..how wonderful..thank you! I love this illo. You create such magic Bella! Happy Easter weekend to you and your little ones. : )
Happy Easter Bella!
I love your little carousels!!! They remind me of little antique wooden toys.
I hope that your sister has a wonderful birthday.
(((HUGS)))
Oh my goodness! This is so cute, look at the expression of glee! I also love the carousel and this is a wonderful gift to your sister. So pretty as alwasy Bella. I like seeing your linework too for the Secret Tea Party :) Absolutely lovely. I am hoping you are having a great Easter this far. A shame you can't see the video...perhaps we shall see if we can get it transferred to youtube or something.....grrr.. I hope you get tons of chocolates this Easter!
such a lovely birthday piece and message is so cute!
wonderful birthday to S!
lovely weekend to you !
Oh, I so envision those sweet girls being just as excited every time they spin around and see each other again! I love the egg dying duo too!
Your sister shares a birthday with my daughter! baby girl is 13!
and she is as sweet as they come!
~laughing~
Perfect! And congratulations on The Secret Tea Party! How lovely!
Sisters are awesome, aren't they? Happy birthday to yours... she's so lucky to have an awesomely talented sister like you! :)

: ) I wish there really were little egg-shaped peeps, Bella! You're so funny..thank you for your sweet visit today - I am wishing you a lovely Easter sunday with your family - hope it's full of wonderful food and fun. I cannot wait for my daughter's 4 layer chocolate cake. She's amazing, but she was upset with me earlier since I didn't take the time to help her get the ingredients down...(I was too busy cleaning)..oh well, we made up! It's smellin' delish in here right now. Sending you a virtual slice, and Ces too!, tomorrow - with a peep on top for decoration. : ) Hugs to you!! Tsup!
Happy returns indeed. Very cute to go with your sisters birthday.
I adore the single carousels tipping gleefully as these two spin and spin and high five each other.
You capture the mentality of children with precision.
I'm 9 years old again when I visit Doodlespot.
Cheers!
Beautiful and so fun! I love all the patterns and colors. Just wonderful, of course. Oh! And of course it's sheep (or maybe goats)! Sheep and goats are so cute and goofy they should definitely have their own carousels.
This is a fun one. I want to join them going round and round!:
"High five me!"
"High five me!"
"High five me!"
"High five me!"
"High five me!"
"High..... "
...okay, that's enough... I'm starting to get sick.
Happy Easter Bella!
Wishing your sis a Yippppppppyyyyyy Birthday!!!! Hope she had a great day!!!!
Your illo is ever so fantastical with all the elements of fun and colour and dream like quality... it's purely magical:)
OMGoodness, how I have missed visiting you. Pure Delight. Squeals of delight! Happy Easter, Dear Bella. Happy Everything! **kisskiss** Deb
Happy Easter dearest Bella. Tsup! TSUP!
Love both the illustration and the coloring page. Hope all is well with you!
I love the way you suggest distance in this, but obviously you and your sister can still touch. I hope she had a great day and that you both had a wonderful Easter!
Happy Birthday to your sister, Bella! Love the high fives!
Hope you had a wonderful Easter!
My first visit to your blog Bella. Many happy returns of the day to your sister. The picture illustration is so cute, shows the love between siblings.
Have a fabulous day:)
Hello it's Wormy, yeah you use to know me as Vanessa. Yeah well.... uh, I'm still here under this rock of creativity where I have transformed into Wormy girl. It's not so pretty under here. I have missed all your loveliness for sure! This is most wonderful and uplifting and I really need that right about now. The colors are amazing and sweet. Great job! You sure do know how to bring out the girl in a worm. Thanks so much. Sending you many hugs and well wishes.
Love you,
Me
