This morning a friend was here for coffee and came bearing gifts for our soon-to-be-born grandson and this afternoon I had lunch with another friend who has made the most amazing quilt for him. Alas I don't have a picture of any of the above to share, but they are all beautiful and so very thoughtful of my friends to share in the birth of our wee one. I am blessed to have such good friends in my life.
Sometimes, in these days of doom and gloom on the news every day, it's nice to read a heartwarming story and THIS one certainly is just that. What a wonderful man!
Today your quote is from an anonymous source....
Twelve things to always remember:
The past cannot be changed
Opinions don't define your reality
Everyone's journey is different
Things always get better with time
Judgements are a confession of character
Overthinking will lead to sadness
Happiness is found within
Positive thoughts creative positive things
Smiles are contagious
Kindness is free
You only fail if you quit
What goes around comes around
How nice that you have sane quilting friends to make baby quilts for you!
ReplyDeleteOh Boy, you sure get around the web!! Thanks for all the great links. If I knew how to knit, I'd be making some of those tiny teddies. Very awwwwww full.
ReplyDeleteGreat friends you have so think a lot of you. You are lucky and your grandbaby will love the gifts.

The media certainly has a sick preoccupation with negative don't they?
ReplyDeleteI guess they firmly believe that's what sells.
Thanks for all the links and info.
Have a good trip!
Your car surprise sounds like ours. While traveling and experiencing very HOT temperatures of 107F our car decided to only blow hot air. A special fan belt burned and broke. Replacement and cold A/C over $600. A few days later while still in extreme heat we smelled gasoline. Off to the shop and a new fuel pump after three days in the repair garage. Thank goodness hubby knows what is wrong and can control the guys doing the repairs. So...almost $1800 and we are now "good-to-go"?? I just didn't want you to feel alone. May you have very safe travels on your trip. You have very sweet friends to bring you such wonderful baby gifts. Blessings Dear....
ReplyDeleteIt's a shock when someone points out that tires need replacing, isn't it? At least, I'm always surprised. Good decision to do it before your cross-country trip!
ReplyDeleteOuch about the tyres but great to know they are now all in good condition - ready for the trip! Love that bear so cute! And yes, aren't friends wonderful.
