Vibrant Eldergnome

Just look at this beautiful lovely lady! She is originally from the other side of the garden, but she has made this side of the garden her home for many many seasons. As an eldergnome, she has lots of life wisdom. She follows the Gnomish path and has a talent for healing of many types. She loves to travel and loves all the languages she hears along the way. She enjoys music, and loves to feel her body ready to dance to the beat. As for me, I'm so happy to have known her. Gno doubt she makes the garden around her all the more vibrant! I hope she will be able to continue to call this corner of the garden her home, as surely the garden gneeds more kind souls like her in it. Thank you, kind lady, for sharing your wisdom and reminding me that in many ways the garden seems so small. With friends like you, it is easy to see how beautiful the garden really is.

The Division Committee

It should come as gno surprise to know that the Gnomish community prides themselves in putting family first and working together to make the garden around them a gnicer, prettier place. However, sometimes even the gnomes are surprised when a family experiences hurt feelings and turmoil in times of uncertainty and disagreement. It breaks my heart, but it seems that these two souls have a very important job to do. Together they make the Division Committee, and they just learned that there is a wee family that has been divided in their views on what decisions would be best for their garden. It seems both sides have some good ideas, yet it is so difficult to understand once conversations turn into debates and debates turn into words that are spoken with regret. It's apparent that the two siblings love each other dearly but right gnow they struggle with liking each other, and gnow their loved ones are at a loss on what to do. That's where these two fuzzy souls step in! They have a very special talent for reminding such families that though they are divided in many ways, they are united in many other important ways. They both want what is best for the garden around them, and they want the best future for the garden's gnomelings. They are both loved dearly and and have been for many seasons. It's a tough job, but these two souls are the right two for the job! With a bit of a hop and a skip, they get started on whispering tiny reminders of love and encouragement to the siblings. Deep down, they know that the garden does gnot gneed more anger. The garden gneeds both sides to work together. They both GNEED love.

Mini Rocky Horror

There is gno doubt that the gnomes in the garden excel at enjoying life to the fullest. It seems to be an inherent Gnomish talent. Some gnomes enjoy life by skipping in sun showers. Others seem to best appreciate a beautiful piece of artwork or a particularly catchy tune. In all honesty, it does gnot matter how one enjoys their life as long as it brings more joy and laughter to the garden. Take it from this fuzzy fella who seems to understand with every ounce of his body that he can be anything he wants and do anything he wants, and he does gnot let outward appearances stop him. In fact, that's part of the fun! I think I like his perspective!

Plaid Gnuzzles

To say that this little fuzzy fella is hard working and easy going, just doesn't do him justice. He loves learning gnew things and working on personal projects, but most of all he loves being loyal and making his loved ones laugh with his sharp sense of humor. Spend even a few moments of time with him and it's easy to see how open minded he is. Don't let his tiny little body fool you... he is filled with more love than you can imagine, and he is excited to share that love with anygnome who finds a connection with him. Finding such great connections seems to come easy for him. Perhaps it is because he is so good at reading other souls and empathizing with their stories? Or maybe it is because of his wonderful deep eyes and good hugs? I happen to think the magic is in his gnuzzles. Relaxing and gnuzzling up gnext to this fuzzy soul, leaves one feeling ridiculously relaxed and content. There might gnot be a better reminder that life is good and love is infinite.

Rainbow Courage

I’m sure there have been moments in your life where you have felt challenged beyond your control. Sometimes it may seem that you're too small to be brave enough to let the garden know that you love every color of the rainbow. Yet you have so much of that love to share! That’s where this little gnome comes in. This tiny little fella has a very big job! And he loves every moment of it! He scurries around looking for just the right person to help, somegnome who gneeds a word or two of encouragement.

The gnome has gnow found a beautiful soul in gneed of his friendship and tiny positive thoughts. He doesn’t hesitate to get to work quickly! He whispers so lightly in his gnew friend’s ear that he is barely audible, but he knows that’s all it takes to ignite a spark of courage and confidence. With these tiny little whisperings of love and hope, may you be reminded that you are gnot alone. Life is good. You are beautiful. You are courageous. You are gnot alone and, most importantly, you are loved. With this little fella by your side, that’s an easy thing to remember.

Love Lasts Forever

There once lived a beautiful soul with a huge heart who was always such a loving soul towards anygnome and everygnome gno matter their race, gender or who they loved or which Gnomish committee they may have voted for. She taught her gnomelings how to be very kind and with the knowledge that family and friends are the most important things in the garden. And when her gnomelings were grown, it was time for her to go. Her wings were ready but their hearts were gnot. Gnow as her gnomelings are establishing their own little gnook in a corner of the garden, she loves to watch from afar. Occasionally, when she feels like she is gneeded most, she will whisper little happy reminders and words of encouragement into her loved one's ears. Her words are so silent that they are barely audible, but they're all that is gneeded. With a little hop and a skip, she watches as the frown on her loved ones is replaced with a smile. And with this beautiful soul watching over you, it's easy to remember that life is good and love lasts forever, even if the form it takes changes from time to time.

Tangled Mess

Have you ever woken up and unexpectedly found your life to be completely different than you thought it would be? Perhaps you took a look out the window and discovered that suddenly the garden outside became a tangled mess and you were gnot certain of how that happened, or what you should do gnext. That's where this fuzzy soul comes in to help! She has a gnack for untangling the tangled and she has been given an important job to do. With a little hop, she skips along searching for the right mess to help untangle. And gnow she has found what she's looking for! Oh my gnomes! This mess seems to have quite a level of sadness and confusion, all tied up with a bit of anger and frustration. There's gno time to waste! She has found somegnome who gneeds a kind word of encouragement or two! She jumps up and rushes to her gnew soul in gneed and whispers so lightly into her gnew friend’s ear that she is barely audible, but she knows that’s all it takes for a reminder of the spark for hope that still grows strong inside. With these tiny little whisperings of love and hope we are reminded that we are stronger than this tangled mess around us. Life is good. Life is beautiful, and with this little lady by your side, it's easy to remember that there are many reasons to remain hopeful.

Rainbow Rights

Gno matter which corner of the garden you're from, I am sure you agree that rainbows are precious. Somegnomes may love the color red, while others love the color green, but that's what's so great about rainbows - There is a color for everygnome to love! Heck, somegnomes go beyond choosing just one color! These especially colorful souls might just be the most loving in the entire garden. Sadly there are cloudy days, even in my corner of the garden, when it seems that gnot all understand the true magic behind love. Out of fear and misunderstanding, some belittle the colorful souls whose lives are so proud and bold. It's in moments of darkness like these when a brave soul with a heart of gold is gneeded, just like this little lady. She may gnot see herself as a hero. After all, she is simply doing the right thing - standing up for love and respect for everygnome in the garden. However, to her colorful friend, she is a warm fuzzy comforting reminder that he is gnot alone. Gno doubt the garden could use more hearts of gold like hers.

PERSONAL GNOTE:
These two loving fuzzy souls have gnuzzling gnoses. They each have a magnet in their gnose so that they are drawn together in a moment of support. Too cute!

Wee Witch

This wee witch decided one day that she gneeded a friend. It just didn't seem like she was connecting with the goblins and mummies that lived in her garden. It gnever seemed like they enjoyed fun things like dressing up in big hats and chanting silly sounding spells. So she concocted up a good friend potion! The recipe called for 2 chips of a cookie, 2 grams of cracker, 1 beer root, 1 pinch of a friend's melons and 1 eight-legged spider. The wee witch quickly got to work, gathering all the ingredients into her big pot. Finally, she reached for the last ingredient, the spider, and their eyes connected for just a wee moment. A wee moment was all it took. She just could gnot bring herself to toss her new little friend into the pot. But wait... That means the potion worked after all!

Sing Sing Sing

Just as soon as the drums begin, you can also feel them deep deep within your body. That's how this tiny kindred spirit feels when the music begins. Every ounce of his body comes to life as though the music gnotes are filled with some sort of magic. Perhaps they are. Perhaps that's why it only takes a few brief moments before your body seems to come alive, filled with electricity, and simply can gnot stand still any longer. This jazzy fella knows what to do when presented with such passion - he's ready to dance! And he's ready to bring a smile to somegnome's face by sharing the moment. As his eyes skim the dance floor, they find what he's looking for. He makes eye contact and with a skillfully placed wink, he knows he has her. Together they boogie and hop to the beat that seems to match their racing hearts as they spin in circles. Maybe they're surrounded by others, but the magic in the music makes the two feel completely alone. Gneither wants the song to end, but that's part of the magic - gno gnome ever knows how long the music will last. That is why this fella knows that as soon as his heart starts to match the rhythm of the drums, it is time to live life to the fullest! It is time to relax, let loose and let the magic take over. It may be true that there is gno way to know when the beat will die down, and the electricity will subside with it, but until that moment... here's to hoping the band is in for a long gnight!

Who Will I be Today?

Growing up can be so confusing at times. Perhaps you have found yourself wondering just what type of person you want to be when you grow up. Maybe you're even unsure of who you are today, let alone who you should be long into the future! It can be difficult to around you and think everyone else knows the answers to these questions already, but I'll let you in on a little secret... They're just as confused as you! And that's why this bright soul is here to help! She guards her pot at the end of the rainbow with great pride, looking for a special soul to share it with. At last, she has found the perfect person - You! Oh how luck you are to be you! If you ever feel that annoying little piece of doubt creep into your mind, and find yourself wondering what type of person you are becoming, just reach into your pot for the answer! What will you be today? Courageous, Kind, Wise or Thoughtful? Perhaps today's the day to be Persistent, Confident, Joyful or simply Thankful. Pick wisely, for only you can decide who you really are. As for me, I happen to know who you are already.
You're all of these things and so much more!
