ruby slippers

Totally random: my favorite door stop.

I smile every time I walk past it.

We're all about having little things

throughout the house that brighten our days,

and this is one of those things. 

There's something about the magic of the ruby slippers

and the magic of Mary Poppins that are related for me, particularly the

hop-into-the-picture-and-you're-there magic. 

My favorite kind of magic involves teletransportation.

Which, in the magic world, seems to involve wishing and imagining strongly enough.

It's like the ultimate positive visualization.

If you could hop into any painting or picture, where would you want to hop?

If you could click your sparkly heels 3 times, where would you want to go?

Oh, so many choices! 

So many paintings and pictures and places and

yet, there is still no place like home...
