Happy New Year to all.. I had a marvellous email today that really has made a great start to 2010 here at easidream...
Dear Lynda,
Happy New Year to you - it is has started fabulously for us! I just cannot tell you how much joy Easidream has brought us. After a night of little sleep we received the package by post, ripped it open immediately and the Dad had it installed under the mattress in less then 5 minutes. We were surprised to see that the rocking motion was much less pronounced then we had expected and holding my ear close to mattress I could only hear a light purring sound.
Our 7 week old is absolutely startled each time when we put her on it and it is astonishing how it completely changes her mood in an instant. Being able to do so at will is the most valuable gift. It doesn't take 20 seconds and the beautiful rocking motion has her eyes glazed over with a contented face, without a dummy. Ewan, the sheep, glows gently and looks such a darling that he instantly became part of the family. With the different music and atmospheric noise settings he does much more than making sure the baby gets to sleep calmly and predictably. Before Easidream we used soft music toys as a sleeping aid, but sadly the music is simply too short to maintain sleep into its solid phase, so you end up going in and putting them on again and again. But Ewan has staying power and finishes his job off properly :)
During the day Ewan takes his place in the buggy about town and is great for a visit to the grandparents or the doctors. He is Easidream-peace on the go. He is fantastic!The Easidream unit with Ewan is a real joy to use and really, really worth getting.... in fact, truly, well worth having waited for!Thank you for your invention and getting it to market just in time for us.

What can I say Ann? Emails like yours really do make all the hard work getting easidream to market worth while.... thanks so much for taking the time to write to me.

And for those of you who may be having a 'What if?' moment, who knows.... it may just inspire you to go ahead and invent a fab 'must have' product of your own... if I can do it anybody can!
