Hi Amy! You had made a Barney design for my daughter a few days ago (as well as her name and your new Build-a-Bear design). I just wanted to tell you that I made her shirts today and when she saw the Barney shirt she was so excited. She has autism and is only learning how to use words but she kept jumping up and down and saying "Barney! Barney!" It literally brought tears to my eyes. So I wanted you to know that you made a huge impact on our family. Katie hasn't taken the shirt off, she keeps rubbing her belly and smiling. In fact she's wearing the shirt to bed - I tried to put her pajamas on and she kept shaking her head No saying "Barney". Thank you seems like such small words, but they are heartfelt. Not only are you incredibly talented, but you make people happy and that in itself is a gift.
This made my night last night when I came home and read this! It is in times like these that spending countless hours on designing makes it all worthwhile. I was almost in tears just reading this! Thank you so much for sharing this story with me and do not hesitate to ask if you need anything else.
