My wonderful JDub. My birthday is two months away, and he just couldn't wait. He just knows exactly what I love, and a good part of the reason for that is because we both love the same type of things. (Did I mention that we're basically ga-ga over our weenie dogs? Yeah, I thought so). These are little brass sculptures by Baller Austrian Bronze, from the 1950s. They just blow me away! They are so cute, and so little (the "babies" are only an inch long tops), and so heavy! (Duh, they're brass.....) And no, the wee ones really don't have forked tails -- that's a shadow when I snapped the digital. I'm so tickled, and I'm so blessed! So what if it's raining?
