I'm still a bit under the weather, but I dragged myself from my gorgeously outfitted four poster mahogany sickbed just to reassure you that you are not Pixie-less. And now I hear this devastating news about my beloved! I am crushed, I am sick at heart, I am deeply distraught. I must hasten to the county home to ask him the one essential, burning question. . . HOW COULD YOU SPEND MY RING MONEY ON THOSE CHEAP HUSSIES, YOU HEARTLESS VILLAIN?!?!
Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter Oh, and mickeymeg, congratulations on your darling new little bundle of joy!! I am simply delighted for you; you must be thrilled. Now, how fast do you think you can train her to crawl down the aisle in a tiny little taffeta gown? She can carry the basket of rose petals in her mouth like a darling little dog, yes?

I'll let you know (what?) when things improve. (oh, look a squirrel) In the meantime, Dug is looking for payment. Take care of that will ya hon? (let go of me you white coated bullies, I'm conversing with my betrothed)
Originally Posted By mickeymeg Pixie, I think we can make something work. She can already squirm off her cushion on her belly and roll onto her side. I say give her a month or two and we should have her up and crawling wherever you need her =) If she is not up to it in time I have a bigger, not badly trained, model who is experienced in sharing flowers. Especiallybv if you can change the flower choice to dandelions.
Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter Well, judging by my intended's, um, delicate state of mind at the moment, I think we've got some time to spare. Although I'm intrigued by the idea of two flower girls. Even if one of them insists on carrying dandelions. I can work with that if the child can walk that precarious line between being just adorable enough to enhance my wedding without being so very adorable that she eclipses the bride. She's not a miniature upstaging diva, is she?

Originally Posted By DlandDug Um, not to be difficult at all, but you didn't clear EITHER of those tykes with me. And dandelions? Yellow dandelions? Perhaps this should be left up to the ladies after all...
Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Dug, Dug, dearest, darlingest Dug, please don't leave me! I'm not entirely sure there even is a wedding anymore but I simply must keep you on retainer for the foregone conclusion that someone (who am I kidding, a multitude of someones) will be swept off their feet by my beauty and charm and there will definitely be a wedding that needs planning at some point in the future. And hopefully some commas, too.
