Happy Father’s Day
I often wonder what my Dad thought of me.
When I look at my own grown children I know in my heart they will always be “my children” that I will love, worry and care about in every way no matter how old they are.
Today, being Father’s Day I am thinking about my memories with my Dad.
No matter how much I loved him; I never felt that he loved me or was proud of me. One year before his death, I traveled to see him to ask him just that very question. I realized that we had limited time together on this earth left; and wanted him to know just how much I loved him and looked up to him. I also knew in my heart that I had spent my whole life trying to “measure up” in his eyes. I wanted to hear it just once….
With tears running down my cheeks I asked him to sit down and talk to me a few minutes. I told him how much I loved him and needed to hear him say the words that he loved me and was proud of me. As soon as I did, he got up and walked out of the room yelling behind him that I must be mentally ill to ask him to say that.
Broken hearted I prayed that I would not feel the pain and hurt from his rejection. It took my heavenly Father to comfort me. He sacrificed His only son because He loves me so much. What more could I need or ask for. He has been the one beside me each day letting me know how proud He was of me for following Him.
So, on this day I want to express how much I loved my earthly father and always will. But I want to honor my heavenly Father for being a Dad to me each and every day.
So if any fathers read this blog; take time each day to tell you children that you love them and are proud of them.

Share In The Excitement At Lady Lynn’s Boutique
This is one of my favorite times of the year! Soon I will be departing on one of my buying trips and the excitement is palatable. I have arranged to meet with several of my international suppliers and I understand that this year’s collection is nothing less than spectacular! I can’t wait to get my hands on the handcrafted sterling silver gemstone jewelry from some of the most exotic locations on earth.
In addition to my gorgeous line of gemstone pendants, rings, earrings, bracelets and necklaces, I plan to increase my sterling sliver line, adding some unique designs of pendants, earrings, rings, necklaces and bracelets. I have also requested matched jewelry sets with a “twist”. While a matched set does not have to be identical, each piece should enhance the other, bringing out the beauty of the stone it is complimenting.
I am so excited about the opportunity to travel and I wish I could take each and every one of your with me. Well, wait, maybe I can. If you have been looking for that special piece, drop me an email and I will try to locate it for you. Do you need a certain color, stone, or style to complete an outfit? Let me help you impress your friends and family with an unbelievable addition to your jewelry wardrobe. Be a part of the excitement here at Lady Lynn’s Boutique and let me help you breath life into your favorite outfit. Send me an email expressing what you are looking for and allow me to suggest some fantastic combinations that will amaze you. Also stay tuned for the announcement of the arrival of our Fall 2008 collection.

Number One Business Tip
Be professional
Clients like to deal with vendors who follow through on their commitment & promises;
and who deliver on what they say when they promise it--with no surprises. Respond in a timely manner. If you tell a client you will send something by Thursday, they better get there Thursday! It's not personal; it's business.

Picture Jasper
Picture Jasper is one of my favorite gemstones because of its unique landscape patterns and wide range of colors.
Picture Jasper is a petrified or silicated mud that dripped into gas pockets of molten lava, becoming super-heated and then solidified forming interesting patterns, bands & colors.
Many of these patterns look like landscapes with mountains, trees and valleys.
Picture Jasper is often called Landscape Jasper or Scenic Jasper. The color comes from Iron Oxides.
Picture Jasper is a chalcedony that is rendered opaque by iron ore. The iron deposits form fascinating patterns of creams, browns and grey/blacks that can look like a tiny picture painted on each stone.

A Poem for Lady Lynn
Sunlit banks displayed in a golden glow...The lady of the water she moves both to and fro...Her yellow locks billow out in the Carolina breeze...She smiles as she hears the rustling of the ancient trees...Her eyes look to the skies her heart yearns for the stars...Though she lingers here in Clayton her soul dwells in heaven afar.
