Happy Everything

Dear Friends of Bluebird Fairies,

Here we are in December! I hear it's a month to recalibrate as we move from resetting our life goals into a new way of being. I hope this transition is going well for you.

I find myself in a period of deep gratitude for Bluebird Fairies and all of you who join me in this creative journey. For over 10 years now, I’ve been sharing my drawings, which emerge from my subconscious, and I’ve been continually moved by how they resonate with others.

Yesterday, I had an experience that reminded me just how magical this connection can be. While dining at a restaurant, I was touched by the care and effort our waitress put into making us comfortable. To show my appreciation, I gifted her a small Zinnia Fairy.

Moments later, one of her colleagues approached our table, her excitement palpable. “I have your deck of fairies! I bought them at Thirty-Odd” she exclaimed. “I’m so happy to meet you! My aunt introduced me to these fairies, and she has them all over her house.”

Her joy was contagious. I introduced her to the Fairy of the Day app, and guess what her fairy turned out to be? The Fairy of Aunts of All Sizes and Flavors! It was a moment that filled me with delight. Encounters like these never stop being so fun and meaningful.

As we move through this season of reconnecting—both with others and with ourselves—I wish you moments of joy and magic like this. Let’s take inspiration from the Zinnia Fairy, who encourages us to be courageous and to embrace childlike humor. Onward we go!

Be well!

Sincerely,
Emily and the Bluebird Fairies
