A secret.

I hope you'll understand.

 

I'm still trying to wrap my mind around it myself.

 

Look carefully at the nametag.

There is now a boy working here at Three Irish Girls. A very very brave boy who is, to quote author Peggy Vincent, holding fast to a rickety raft of testosterone in a surging sea of estrogen. 

To help him feel more at home, we made him a message board and put a bunch of glittery, flowery magnets on it. That is my understanding of what men find enjoyable in the workplace.

We like him.

But, can I just say?

With no offense intended, dear Aaron?

Boys are weird.

Aaroon could be really happy: it's not PINK ! And nobody force him to wear an uniform with a skirt! ;-)

Hooray for a new yarn wrangler, and welcome, Aaron!

I have just one question: If I hang a list like that in my office or kitchen, will a boy clean my coffee pot, dishes and cabinets or does that only work for Yarnistas ? ;)

Yes, boys are weird. But I'm absolutely certain they think we are!

And let me add what I forgot to: Welcome, Aaron! Good luck and have fun!

Aaron is brave. He will do well. ;-)

Aaron. Such a strong name. He'll go far in the Yarn world. Is there a colorway with his name yet? Give him the prerequisite 3 months and that could be his motivation...Good Luck Aaron!!
