Another thing in the package was this mug! It is a symbol of generosity and connectedness. Doug and Kate gave me my first handmade ceramic mug about 7 years ago. It was made by Simon Levin. When I moved back from Guatemala it became the mug I would always reach for. As I was just starting to learn to make pots I learned SO much from it. After about 3 years of use it somehow got pushed to one side of my cupboard and when I opened the other side it fell out and broke. I've been watching for a large mug made by Simon, but hadn't found one. Today this arrived in the mail - a large Simon mug that Doug and Kate had! I was so touched and excited . . . Thank you to Simon for making it, and to Doug and Kate for giving me another mug to learn from that has layers of memories attached to it!

Package of Thoughtfulness!
I just got a package in the mail from Doug, Kate, Eli, and Mariana! Eli's drawing of Lake Atitlan now hangs on my fridge next to the painting that Gaby made for me as a going away gift when I left Guatemala five years ago. Thank you both for the beautiful artwork that reminds me what life is about.
