I like the goldfish best, even though I am not among the first 3 to respond.

I love the buttons. I like the frame ones the best!

I remember waking up to my first earthquake when we were in China. I was pretty young and we lived on the 4th floor of a dorm-type building. There were huge windows in my room and I remember groggily waking to a sound that sounded exactly like someone trying to pound a nail into the glass. Which is what I thought it must be and I remember thinking WHY someone was trying to do this and WHY at this hour. Then I finally woke and realized the whole room was shaking. I stopped abruptly after I woke. My mom had been in our living room when it started and saw the security chain lock (like in some hotels) start to swing on the door. She ducked under the table and waited. Suddenly, she remembered her coffee was on the table. She jumped up and got it and continued drinking it as the earthquake finished.

The earthquake woke me and my husband up as well. Very strange feeling, yet we knew right away what it was. (But you’re right, it did sound like a snow plow crashing!)

I love the goldfishes the best. :-)

earthquakes always make me nervous! i experienced quite a few when i lived in japan and for days afterward i’d always imagine the room was shaking.

the gnomes are my favorite, but they’re all such lovely buttons! mushrooms and stripes tie for second.

I’d have to say the gnomes, mushroom and goldfish are my faves. So awesome! Seriously though, love the mushrooms. So cute.

Hearing about your earthquake kinda freaks me out since I heard this report on npr recently: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=123126966
