the kindness from my neighbor
I headed out to shovel the driveway this evening. We got hit hard with snow. I cleared one row and my neighbor came over with his snowblower.
He did my entire driveway for me. I was so thankful.
I think I've shared how I swear we are the only family on the street without a snowblower. lol I really don't mind clearing the driveway with a shovel, but it was such a kind thing for him to do.

My neighbor was also a dear and did our long country drive way with his tractor.

How neat! I think someone deserves some cookies.

I was trying to think of a nice little treat to send. I was thinking a wine, cheese and cracker basket. Any other ideas that are sugar free?Originally posted by Darlene

Great!
One time after a big snow, we watched from our windows as someone plowed out our driveway. We never did know who it was, but it definitely was a terrifically kind thing to do.~~Jean~~

Glad to know that you have such kind neighbors Sara. That's the one thing I miss about living way out where we do, no neighbors anywhere near by.
I bet he would love a card made by Zachery and Ally.

That was very kind of your neighbour...I remember when Patrick was 4 months old and Pierre was away for his work since a month, we had a big snow storm and there was snow to my waist in our long driveway....I asked a neighbour if he could snowblow our driveway..I even offered him 20$ and he wasn't happy I asked him and so I said ok, I'll try to manage on my own...and I was polite---finally he came 15 minutes later and did it and I gave him $20, and he didn't apreciate it even if I was smiling and was so happy he helped me...anyways...all this to say, some neighbours are kind but for some it's seem very tough to be generous a little...
