Small acts of kindness

I don't have a card on this Sunday morning, just thought I'd share something with you... and a quote to underline my experience this morning.

My daughter who is studying in Switzerland is having trouble with her mobile phone... and except for Skype, that's our LIFELINE! So I went to the post office this morning to mail her an old one of mine... not wanting to send a brand new one , because of the risks to mail an item like that!

The guy behind the counter has such a kind heart, and he helped me in such a great way, he really made my day.  Not only is my daughter's phone not working, she's really ill, with a respiratory tract infection, and can only see a doctor tomorrow! So this mother's heart is feeling very BLUE! 6000 kilometres is very far when your child is ill... and she's only 19!

Then I went to collect the mail from the mail box... to find a bag of goodies I won from Flonzcraft!

And guess what... because I was their first customer from the UAE, they included not one... but two free gifts!

I can really recommend you visiting their site... great stamps, affordable prize and great service!

Two small acts of kindness that meant so much to me !!

That was a lot of talking from me... but this is what I am trying to say...




Thanks for reading... and as Ellen says... be kind to each other!
Love

So happy for you!

Hi there!

At last!!! I found washi tape... in Abu Dhabi. Not in the craft store where I was looking for it... but in the book store !
I bought a lot... in fact... I bought every single design they had *blush* just in case ...
And  I love it!

I made a card using the freshly made sketch for this week.







A sketch with so many possibilities!



I made the sentiment to share (as usual ;)
