Stinky Skunk :: Sneak Peek

I definitely don't say this enough... I ** l.o.v.e ** l.o.v.e. ** l.o.v.e.** my clients... uggggh... I don't like that word "clients" it's too cold of a term to describe the people with whom I work.  They almost always turn into great friends (or started out being friends already).  Anyway, these wonderful people make this job even more fantastic!!

Today was a shining example of why I love my clients/friends.  I was late.  Not like five minutes late, or rushing around the corner... be there in a minute... type of late, but LATE.  Late enough for the mom of this little "skunk" to take off and never look back.  She could probably even bad mouth me and my lack of business etiquette for all time.  I hope that she won't, but she could and it would be totally legit.  After stalking her as much as possible on my phone to try to find her cell phone number she finally got my e-mail and called.  When I told her what happened over the phone she was more than cool.  Super cool.  When I finally pulled up she smiled, and  told me that it was okay every time that I apologized... and that was a lot!!  I'm going to apologize one last time, and then I'm done... really...  Crystal, I'm soooo sorry!!  

I am soo soo sooo soo sooooooo glad that she stuck it out and waited for me because I had a blast getting to see her again, and meet her little man!!  This little guy just turned 3, and his birthday party is on Sunday.  He has requested that his party be a "stinky skunk" party.  I'm not sure what that means, but I'm dying to see photos of all the great details!  I love that his mom took his idea and ran with it instead of convincing him to do something more traditional.  She's letting his creative juices flow, and I love that about her!  I did; however, try to invite myself to his party (even though I won't be in Colorado anymore when his party takes place), but I was informed by Mr. Stinky Skunk himself that I am NOT to attend.  I guess he doesn't want me showing up late and ruining his party!!  

Mr. Skunk kept me laughing all day.  He reminded me so much of a cuter version of Elmer Fudd.  He looked for skunks and rabbits and snakes and chipmunks.  He yelled to Mr. Tunnel asking if Mr. Rabbit was in there... his imagination ran wild all day, and I found myself just trying to catch up.

Crystal and Mr. Skunk, I loved seeing you today.  Again, I'm so sorry to keep you waiting for such a long time.  There I go again.  I hope that you find that these photos were worth waiting for!!  See you again soon!  ~~ Jodi
