Look!
I have a friend in Ireland, that I met through the blog. And even though an ocean separates us, our lives as wives and mothers are very similiar.
Similiar, except for the fact that she is a talented digiscrapper with her own design business, and I am not.
For no reason at all, other than to be nice, she made this page for me.
And I’m so grateful. I absolutely love it.
And I wonder, when was the last time I did something nice for someone, no strings attached?
When have I taken some time from my busy life to show kindness for another person without expecting anything in return?
Sadly, I can’t remember.
I need to do something about that.

How nice!! What a sweet gift from a sweet friend.
And you are so right…I need to do more things “just because”.

Beautiful! She’s very talented ~ I’ve visited her blog a few times. She’s actually the reason I know about digiscrapping, which is likely the only way I’m ever going to take up scrapbooking. What a nice little gift!

How cool is that! I think you should plan a no strings attached day. I would love to have time to do random things like that for my friends. One of the coolest things ever, was when we made that scrapbook for Kristen…why did we have to wait until she was moving? I am going to keep this in my mind!

what a great example- we all should look for opportunities to do things just because. very cute page, too.
My sis sandy looks nothing like me- she looks like my mom, i look like my dad- click on her name in the post and you’ll see.
we are not coming to your area this summer after all, which means, i just may have to make a special trip sometime because we will meet some day somehow or another, i am sure of it!

That is so Great, I love that page!!!
OH and the doing something nice for someone, without expectations, yep, a good one too!
Did you see where a church went out this weekend and paid for $10 in gas for drivers at a certain gas station in Il (I think) and they pumped their gas for them too!?
