I went to my photos and think that one of the pictures is actually still on my camera :(
I have to tell you I have some of the best friends in the world. Not for these packages, but for the love and friendship they show on a daily basis. I know these ladies (as well as so many others) love me for me, pray for me, laugh with me, trust me, share with me, are silly with me, cry with me and get mad with me. Stacy,Catherine, and Tracey are just a few of those people who have touched my life in a major way.
Thank you Stacy for the past years of friendship. You were there from the start of my blog and always there to pray and remind me that God is in control and he has my life in his hands. You helped me through many thing. Thank you for your sweet gift. The goodies are beautiful. I LOVE the coffee themed kitchen towel / pot holder set! It is proudly hanging in my kitchen and I dare anyone to touch it and get it dirty :D lol! Those magnets are ADORABLE and come in quite handy!!! No more GOOGLE SEARCH for measurements!!! YAY!!! I am waiting for the PERFECT project to use that gorgeous paper on!!! And most of all your card and words touched my heart, You are an amazing, beautiful woman; So strong and your faith and love for God is inspirational. Oh, and the kids loved their surprise :D
Catherine ~ TOC!!! Baby! You know I love ya girl! You are one of my 'newer' friends, but so close to my heart and mean so much to me. You have been there for me through the start of my shop and as we got to know each other and laugh and share, our friendship grew. You are always honest and caring... and have just reminded me that God is so good. That he never leaves us, never gives up, and is always working in our lives.. working on us... even if we do not realize it :) Thank you for blessing my heart and for your friendship. Your sweet gift made me smile and laugh and cry. I know what you wrote came straight from your heart and I thank you for that. You also made me laugh (literally out loud) and I thank you for that:D I hold up my cuppa joe and smile hoping one day we will be able to share some over a table of yummy goodies, paper, and laughter.
last but not least, I received this lovely package from my sweet friend Tracey! I am IN LOVE with all of these gorgeous goodies! I am telling you, I don't deserve all of this, but I LOVE all of this! Tracey- you are such a generous and sweet and loving person. I am so thankful for this amazing gift ... and am so blessed to have you as a friend. We just really started getting to know each other and I can honestly tell you with each email, comment, post .. you always share your heart and leave me with something to think about. You remind me daily how God loves us and how he has so much planned for us. That we are here for a reason and he has given us all special gifts that we should use for him and to glorify him. Thank you for your friendship, trust, love, honesty, and for just being you... you do so much and alway make me (and so many others) smile.
HUGS and lots of love to all of my friends.
Today my heart is reminded of how blessed I am and how much God loves me.

What a lovely surprise. What great friends you have.
ReplyDeleteAw! You are (obviously) such a wonderful friend and sister in faith! ((((HUGS))))) I'm sure that Stacy and Tracey would agree that you have given so much to us in so many ways, we are only too happy to show our love in return. These are just tokens of how much we appreciate your friendship and fellowship, which are the true treasures.
ReplyDeleteHeather a very small gift of appreciation is nothing compared to the gift of your friendship! You have blessed my life in ways that can not be expressed. I thank God for you everyday. Now I must go find a box of tissue as you made me cry like a baby!
ReplyDeleteI love you, you are not just a friend you are a SISTER in Christ!'
