everything but this last little gift with the card.....

Even the simple BJ and hand drawn heart shows me a true artist
sent this to me.......
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL, LITTLE HANDMADE CARD !OH, THANK YOU, MARY
A lovely vintage scarf that is just
PERFECT
for a vintage dresser I have in my guest room....

BJ, that must have been like receiving a surprise goodie box. And, it was truly filled with treasures.
Mary is very special, and she thinks you are special, too.
Dear bj,
I'm so glad you like your gifts. You're such a sweetheart, and you are very welcome!
xoxo,
Mary
Isn't it amazing the beautiful kindness that weaves it's way through blogland. I have met the sweetest people. And this post just goes to show the wonderful generosity that is out there! And if anyone deserves love and generosity it is you dear BJ. You are such an inspiration to everyone. And look at the lesson that Mary has taught us! Have a fabulous day!
What a sweet gift froma sweet lady! Why wait til Christmas to give someone a pretty surprise?

Hi BJ -
Oh what wonderful gifts you received! I especially love the yellow tray. I only wish I could stop by and see it on your counter. The tower of notepads is great. I saw some in blues at a local store and I wanted to buy them for my dear mother. I may go back and get them for a 'just because' gift for her. No reason needed!

Aren't surprises FUN?...the GOOD ones I mean. Whatever the contents of a surprise pkg. are, they are always more special when packed with love as in this case.

Sweet gifts, BJ!
BJ, Just because someone loves you, became a boat load of very lovely gifts. No surprise here. Smile. Enjoy everything, you deserved a 'surprise box' after all you have been through. My grandmother would agree.
Love and hugs, Jeanne
