    Default Had To Share!

    I was delighted yesterday to come home last night to find my dearest friends had visited. They are a wonderful couple who have a 7 month old baby whom I absolutely adore, and because she is so small and precious, I turn the heat on in the apartment when I know they're coming to town to visit. I've given them a key to the apartment so that they can come and go from our home as they please -- they can use the bathroom, change the baby in comfort, relax, use our kitchen to make baby food, etc.

    Well, as a thank you, when I came home and they were there to visit, they'd also gone out and bought my husband and I a wide variety of wonderful groceries! Cheese, flour, chocolate and butterschotch chips, raisins, Jell-O, canned soups, baking goods, sugar, vegetable shortning, vanilla, etc. It was wonderful. I was so pleased with this. It was certainly not anything they had to do, and both my husband and I told them this -- they do all kinds of things for us all the time -- but this gesture was just so kind I felt like sharing.

    So to add to my daily appreciations, I have these wonderful friends whom I cherish dearly.

    Bright Blessings!

    Good friends are something very special indeed. Glad you have each other.
    Thanks for making me smile Rawiya. Isn't it neat when one person does something nice for another it makes so many others smile. A small act of kindness can warm many hearts.

    That was very sweet of you to accomodate them like you do as well. But what a nice gesture on their part! Enjoy!
