Evidently, my younger brother is head-over-heels in his nonchalant kind of way. I’ve not met this girl, but it is looking increasingly like she might be “related” in the future—So, in an attempt of goodwill and “Hey, look, our family isn’t as crazy as it seems” kind of gesture, I made them a pair of Smittens for Christmas.

I’d do a few things differently if I made them again—but, in all I’m OK with the results for a first attempt. It’s the thought that counts? Right? Here they are all wrapped up. Now, it’s just a matter of actually mailing them.

They are just young enough and certainly in love enough to think this is fun. I hope.
