The time has come....

We knew it would come to this eventually ...

even with time to prepare our goodbyes, it doesn't make it any easier.

 

 

You see,  Fall is our favorite time of year here at my home - and Rex is hesitant to give up his space on my workbench!

 

I must say, Rex may be my last punkinhead for the season - but I won't forget him anytime soon!

 

From his wool felt top hat right down to his boots with little socks sticking out, I have

so enjoyed creating this boy.

He whispered to me very late in the evening

how much he loves bats - so I thought it was

the least I could do to make his last wish come true.

Love you, Rex!

 



 

For the record, Rex has a job on his hands...

keeping timely company with this sweet dew-drop

as they make their way

to their new home. 

 

 

As Rex puts it: 

"it's a dirty job... but someone's got to do it"  :)
