The South boasts a long line of cercie creators, whose little bundles of joy have surprised and delighted friends, family, coworkers, customers, clients, caretakers, and fellow creators for generations. But in my mind the Mother of them all is mine - Sandie Love.
Mom has the gift of gifting, an exquisite timing and attention to detail. She has always said that 'presentation is everything,' and she's serious. I used to get 'cercied' often when I was in gradeschool. A little note, a fun napkin, a special drink straw tucked into my Scooby Doo lunch box. My classmates often made fun of me, but even then I knew that was just Cercie Envy. I got cercied all the way through college, too. Even today I'll come home to a fun little package in my mail box for no reason other than to spread a little Cercie Love around.
I say keep the cercies comin' !
There's a whole lotta Cercie Love to give and it starts here. A cercie is a small gift or favor, often given as a surprise. Cercies spread serendipitous joy, appreciation, and love. {Sir-See}

I remember witnessing some of your mom's "cercis" at the lunch table at Atlas Road. They were always so special.
I applaud your creativity and the inspiration for your creativity and ingenuity.
I'm so happy you began the first steps of your idea. Good luck!
You are part of that inspiration, so be ready. Thanks always for your support. Now let's get your movie review blog set up!!
So that's how you spell 'cercie'... I always wondered :)
Welcome to the blogosphere!
Welcome to Blogland. I love this post. What a real and inspiring story. OXOXO
That is not Tyler, Amy it's Robbin!
brava, my friend! i can't wait to see what you've got up your sleeve! will it be online only, or brick & mortar?
wishing you the best!

Robbin, 'Cercie' as a blog name was taken, so I added a little 'love.' ha.
You know you're the big reason I did this. Thanks for everything. Love Tyler's draw-rings.
Talk to you soon ... I've got some ideas.
Thanks, Jen. I don't think brick and mortar. The imagination realm will surely be larger without walls ... i will need you for some Words. You're my Word Woman. And maybe also some Wine when necessary. :-)
