happybirthdaytome



[yes, it is a little late. my birthday is still the 7th day of the 7th month, but michael (having been in honduras for a month) gets a dispensation.] isn't it lovely! this is the beautiful cedar and mahogany box that michael made for me. it is even more exquisite in person, especially as it is full of fascinating things that he found on the shores of honduras. there is a nautilus carved on the front, and the inside is segmented in the proportions of the fibonacci sequence. most wonderfully of all, he made it with his very own hands, learning most of the skills as he progressed with the help of folk he works with on the farm. it is a labor of love, and i am so proud of it. and him.
