The Sweetest Thank You


I received this thank you card today from my girlfriend's daughter, Lauren, whom I had the pleasure of watching this past (furlough) Friday.   As we talked, Lauren mentioned that she liked to draw and color so I asked her if she wanted to learn how to make a card and make one for her mom.   She enjoyed it so much, I sent her home with some images to color along with some paper, glue, and embellishments.   What a nice surprise I had today when I received this card made with the things I gave her.  It came along with a beautiful store-bought card and a gift card (Eileen you shouldn't have!) but Lauren's card is what means most to me!   And, it is also so nice to see a child growing up so thoughtful and considerate.  Thank you, Lauren, you are the sweetest little girl! 


May I also share with you my good news?  I had another nice surprise today--I made the top three with my "Wish Big" entry in the Pixie Cottage Challenge.  What a wonderful surprise!

Thank you so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful evening!

Yes, Lauren enjoyed crafting with Aunty Shirley! So much so that she wanted to make her a thank you card! Thanks again Shirley for watching Lauren and teaching her card-making!
