How Thoughtful!

Well the mailman arrived yesterday with a wonderful surprise. It was my apron from the "Hittin' the Trail" apron swap. It was about two months late and I had forgotten about it. You see my partner never sent my apron. Her dad had gotten sick and I never heard back from her. It was disappointing, because when I do a swap I really try and make a creation that my partner will love. I realize that things in life happen and sometimes it's hard to carry out a commitment. Well Val, was hosting the swap and she felt really bad. After waiting so log, she said that she was making a special cowboy apron just for me. It was a wonderful surprise and so sweet of her to do this.

I can't wait to wear it. I had to get "my friend" all dress up just so I could show it off. I'm not sure if I'll wear the cowboy hat when I'm cooking. If I do then for sure my family will think I've lost my mind! Thank you again Val, for your kindness it was a sweet surprise. It made my day!

Have you had a kindness shown?

Pass it on; 'Twas not given for thee alone,

Pass it on; Let it travel down the years,

Let it wipe another's tears,

'Til in Heaven the deed appears -Pass it on.
