Season's Greetings

Hello there!  Well, I've made time to play with one of the images from Stempelglede that I received from my dear friend Christina last year.  I love these images!

Now I also have to share with you something my little boy brought home from school yesterday .. which pretty much made me tear up and cry.  LOL!

Here's the things that were in a decorated paper bag .. uhhhh .. minus a lifesaver candy because he ate it .. LOL!

And on a paper it read:
Thankfulness Bag Ingredients

*A rubber band ~ to keep our hearts tied together and always

*A candy kiss ~ to say thank you for all your love

*A penny ~ to say thank you for sharing my thoughts and letting me know they are important to you

*A warm fuzzy ball ~ to make you feel good when you are sad, like you always do for me

*An adhesive bandage ~ to say thank you for all the times you make my hurts feel better

*A facial tissue ~ to say thank you for all the times you dry my tears

*A piece of Lifesaver candy (my son chowed it down .. hehe!) ~ a circle to show that my love for you will never end

Okay, that was just the sweetest things of many!!!!!!!!!!  I loved it so much!  :)

Well, thank you so much for visiting me .. I love it when you do.  I'll see ya again soon!

Hugs,
Elise
