<p><strong>“Some Bunny Loves You”</strong> &#8211; part of my<em> You Are Loved</em> Series</p>
<p>©2011 amy elyza kamala  all rights reserved</p>
<p>These two heart-nosed kissy bun buns were a design for stuffed animals. I gave my boyfriend one of the dolls before he went on tour (He’s the stage production manager for the Glitch Mob) and kept the other. He carried it with him for quite some time but I’m pretty sure he’s lost his by now. So my little bun is sitting in a box of my “special stuff” all by herself with a half a heart for a nose. *tear*</p>
<p>One of these days I will make another pair of some bunny loves you aminals and make sure to take some photos this time before I give them away (or possibly sell them on etsy :P) I usually make stuffed animals as gifts and usually only make one of them.&nbsp; Maybe I will post up some (crappy quality) pics of some of my other stuffed animals.</p>
<p>anyway, I love these two. I’m so corny <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f600.png" alt="😀" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>

<p>Here is a drawing from 2010. An expression of the culmination of my heart’s many wounds, and of the ultimate reality of my romantic life.&nbsp; Lately I’ve been coming to terms with the idea that I will never experience the wholesome nuclear family happily-ever-after thing that I’ve always wanted.&nbsp; So I’ve kind of been feeling like (see above drawing) lately.</p>
<p>Such is life, I suppose.</p>
