Merriment Chain ~ Day 19

It was so sad when I got home from work today and turned on the news. It really made me stop and imagine  how the poor families must feel. It is really something to pray about. may God comfort them and wrap them in His loving arms. It also made me so glad that I made the trip to the cities to see my nephew's concert. Yes it was a late night and yes I was tired all day at work but it meant so much to him and really it takes so little to make a kid's day special. I am going to work hard at making all of the kids in my life enjoy special moments.

My merriment today was on my doorstep when I came home from work. My dear friend sweet Steph from Front Porch Prims sent me a package. Now the merriment wasn't so much in what was inside the package which I loved make no mistake. But the merriment was in the fact that someone cared enough to send me something that they made from their heart. It warms my heart to know that someone cares enough about me to do that. So Steph, thank you so much for caring and also for sharing.

Steph sent me this cute little basket that I added some greens and berries to and also this cute cute cute...did I say cute little tree. I don't know how she made it but it is.....well....CUTE! I love it! I also got 4 teabag ornaments that she made...I put them right on my tree so sorry no picture. Thanks again Sweet Steph!

What a kind and loving friend! I am glad that she blessed such a sweet and dear person as you, Cindi! It sure is an inspiration to do more of that in seeing the joy it brought to you!

Thank you for the precious reminder to cherish the children in our lives. We know Jesus thought of them as precious...

And now you know why we call her Sweet Steph.... ;o) Love the basket - and your added touches are perfect! But that little tree stole my heart....I've seen them here in there - I think she gave one away on the big ornie giveaway and I was smitten at first sight.

Yes, little ones are so precious. What a horrific reminder that we need to cherish, hug, and squeeze all we can.....Hugs ~ Robin

Yea!!! You got it. I am so happy you like it. It's not big, but you are right, it's from the heart. I made it just for you clear in Oct. I was saving it all this time for your Christmas present. Thanks for letting me share with you. -Steph-
