I see shadow there so it counts. The Goatmother LOVES didgeridoos, by the way! AND you really cleaned up with all those lovely purchases from the *famous outlet*. Way to go, Mrs. Micawber! Lastly, I bet Faith would be very interested in that yarn Tallulah was perusing because one of the World's Cutest Boys is named that. :) Personally, I think Tallulah is much prettier and nicer than that little green adventurer who lives here.
