Thursday's Three: Growth

This weeks Thursday's Three was inspired by the change and growth my group of girlfriends and I have gone through. We've all known each other for years now. I didn't think it was even possible, but I enjoy and care for my girlfriends more and more with each passing year.

We've all been through a lot together: Friends passing, silly fights, miscarriages, my little birth incident, and MUCH more. I feel like we have grown even closer with all of us getting married and having babies and buying houses... doing big girl stuff!

1) This BEAUTIFUL flower is the perfect image of growth. I love the petals spraying out of it's center. SO lovely. Please visit the VERY talented and lovely Christy at Skinned Knees on Etsy. And, please check out her blog.

2) I love this silk screened art work. The Growing Human Heart. This artist also prints artwork on pillows. I love it. Please check out Utilitarian Franchise!

3) This grow sign is cut out of recycled plywood. Put over a baby's crib, over your piggy bank, in your garden... Please check out WKD Studios for more goodies. There's even a nerd word! :)
