I would love to be in Jersey today to celebrate the birthday of a very special friend, Lisa. Since I couldn't, I did the next best thing . I celebrated her birthday in the forest with some very special friends including one of her very special little bunnies or March Hares, stepping in to blow out the candle. I have only known Lisa for a very short time but in some ways I feel like I have known her forever, she never ceases to surprise and delight me. I met her in a virtual sort of way back on December 1, 2008 brought together by Nicole of Astulabee fame. It seemed fitting to take some very special soft magical creatures to my secret tree stump that I have nicknamed the castle in the Land of Forest fern for this special day. I hiked into the forest with Marcel le Poison, the Polar fish boy, Lisa the March Hare, the forest fern woodlander and Mungo. A very special gathering it was indeed!! Of course I was there to document the occasion on film.

Birthday Party By Proxy in the Land of Forest Fern
That's Lisa wearing the forest fern birthday crown on her very smart head. Notice a a special little guest who was being very shy sitting on the table :)
I hope you will all join me in wishing Lisa a very happy birthday today.

What a happy group! I think I'd be very happy to be in that spot in the sun, cozy in my little castle in the sun amidst the snow. It reminds me of your teddy bear picnic post from last year (?). I'm glad to see that Mungo is still with you and making new friends!
