One of my favorite quotes is from Socrates: "Wisdom begins in wonder." This beautiful little pot is my first gift for our sweet little one. We have been waiting a little over 18 months now. The agency said the average wait is about 18-24 months. So we have been getting things together so that we can spend our time bonding with baby and not painting etc... This planter was made by
Lori Koop. I love her work. It's magical. Incredibly simple and earthy. All I did was give her a basic idea of size and mentioned Socrates' quote. This wonderful wonderful planter arrived today. Lori had placed these little gifts inside. So absolutely perfect! These are the things that a child (of any age) would pick up and tuck away. Secret treasures that arouse wonder. Look at the tiny little stars dancing around the words! Thank you Lori!!

Ooooh, new beginnings are just around the corner for you. I can feel it. Little hands and little feet that in time, will grow big enough to carefully hold those pieces of nature. Great planter! I'm going to check out Lori's shop now!
