Fortune-Telling Book of Names.

Tuesday, December 30, 2008




So I bought a little nick-knack at Pottery Barn the other day. It's a very cute little yellow Fortune-Telling book of names and since I have always had that "mysterious" side to me and I am a sucker for lists of kids names I thought to myself, "Jackpot." It's really interesting so I thought I'd be kind and tell all of YOU your fortune! Eat up.
