Have you had a chance to enter into this months GIVE AWAY (which closes tomorrow evening AUST time) or perhaps thought about joining me in my very first Christmas Tag Swap? 

Both are open to absolutely every one + I would love it if you would check them out.

Princess in a Tree

When I was a tween, I desperately wanted my own cubby house in the big gum tree in our back yard. I wanted it, because I was obsessed with the Baby Sitters Club books, and the idea of a 'club' of friends appealed greatly to me and I thought a club house would be a perfect place to meet with my members, and gossip about boys, and other very important tweeny things.

I never did have a club house in a tree, but one summer I spent a lot of time in that big ole tree, reading, planning, dreaming. (I even had a rope which I pretended was the reins of a horse - a la 'National Velvet')

There was something about hiding in a tree, away from the world, and dreaming...

I wondered if it would be the same today - if I were to climb that tree? And besides the fact that I can't see how I would hoist my pregnant self up into the tree, I don't think it would be the same.

Did you have a secret space where you would dream, plan + plot? What did you dream about in that space + have you a space now where you can dream, plan + plot? I would love to hear your stories.

P. S: Don't forget to enter into this months give away - there are two awesome prizes up for grabs. x
