Thankyou Méri!!

The ever-sweet Méri sent a present for my wee girl. It's an ancient design and a traditional toy from Portugal. You hold it by the handle and move it from side to side....

...and all the little chickens peck like crazy. Super sweet. The wee one loves it.

If you haven't visited Méri before, you should pop on over to see her. She's one of the true gems of the blogosphere, and one of the kindest souls you'll meet.
Thanks Méri!

I LOVE to read your comments and they brighten my day. I can't respond unless your profile has an email address attached, though... And some days I simply don't have time to respond.... but I respond in a telepathic sort of way to each and every comment.
