An Award!


Many thanks to my friend Marilyn at Our Victorian Cottage, who passed along this award to me! As we go thru life God blesses us with people sent our way who come to hold a special place in our heart. Some we never even meet face to face. Such is my friend Jules at Whimsical Notions. Jules lives in Australia. Somewhere that I most likely will never be able to go to. But though far away God brought her into my life thru the internet via a group that we both belong. And though I have not been an active member of the group in a while, Jules still visits me and I visit her thru our blogs and emails. Jules is such a special person. She has strength, courage and hope that shines thru and she doesn't even realize that it shines in her. And I guess that is what really does make her so special. Jules has a huge heart and is such a loving, kind and giving soul. She's a friend to all in need. And I don't know how she know, but she always seems to show up when I need a smile. So Jules, this award is for you. Thank you for being the dear sweet lady that you are. And thank you for always bringing me a smile when I need it.
