Love Carries All

Hi Katers, I'm super-excited about the Valentine's day present I'm getting Mike. It's a print from Etsy titled Love Carries All. Not only is it adorable, but it will be a little private joke between us. We were watching one of our favourite shows last week -- Outnumbered -- about a family with three kids, and the day-to-day chaos they cause. Anyways, the family has a large paper mache elephant in their kitchen. Finally, after three seasons, another character (a crazy aunt) says to the father "I don't get it. Why do you have this in here." And the father replies, "It's our elephant in the room. We never talk about it," and without hesitation moves onto a different subject.



Mike and I had a hearty laugh, and decided that we need an elephant in the room. I'm not so keen on having a giant paper mache one hanging above our dining room table -- I'll only go so far for a joke, and I'm not into the whole African decorating theme. But, I think this one from Etsy will fit in with our decor and provide a good chuckle for us. I'm having it printed on normal paper, since I think the dictionary page might friek Mike a bit -- he is a traditionalist.



Do you have any ideas for what you're doing with/for Dan?







PS, you can find the print at this etsy shop:
