Once upon a time I lived in Mobile, Alabama (from age
11 to 23). I saw this tin on the blog 52Flea and left a
comment. If you have not seen Laura's blog you are
missing a treasure. Laura sent me the tin!!!!!
But, she didn't stop there. She filled the tin with goodies.
She had no way of knowing that I have bunnies in my yard
(mostly) and home. (some of the ones in the yard are real,
wild critters). It just makes me smile to look at this face!
Then a lovely bar of French Milled soap......with my initial.
So very thoughtful.
Next was a sweet little flower frog to add to my collection.
And then the cutest little birdies in the world! Again, there
was no way for her to know that I also collect ceramic
birds!!
She really hit the nail on the head with all my wonderful
goodies. Thank you Laura, so very much.
This is one of the wonders of blogging. I have thought at
times that I might just stop with the blog. You know,
you feel sometimes that no one reads your posts and your
blog isn't as cool as some others, so why bother. But then
I realize that the most important thing about blogging is the
people out there in blogland. Laura really brought that home to
me by sending me these little things "just because". I felt so
included in that big bad world out there...someone I would not
know if she walked in my door, whose voice I've never heard,
Her photography is so beautiful and how she expresses herself
is heartwarming.
Blogging has opened new doors for me in ways I did not expect.
It is it's own world and I am so happy to be a part of it. Whether
or not anyone reads this just doesn't matter, because I have the
fun of putting up pictures and "chatting" about life, expressing
myself, leaving comments and enjoying reading other blogs.
I am grateful to Laura for helping me see this revelation and for
sharing a part of her with me. Thank you Laura!!!
Until next time,
Annette
