in your soul, effortless, and simply beautiful...
enter this sweet soul that leaped into my heart Polly of Sassafras Stuff
I love how she inspires me week after week, oh how I long to meet her one day
She checks in on me through emails and comments on my blog, she lifts my
spirits when I am suffering from my Lupus and sad about mama's cancer...
She's my friend miles away yet I feel her presence when I hurt. Awhile back she
did this POST on her August booth sale. I fell in love with these white artichokes
that she had and I left her a comment saying how I wish I were there
I would scoop them up in a heart beat.
The last few weeks have been so very rough on me and yet I kept getting little
notes from her reminding me that she was there. So this morning while I was still
in my pj's the postman leaves this big box on my doorstep...
Look what she sent me...
I burst into tears so hubs grabbed the camera
as he was crying too
she also sent these beautiful juice glasses with "K' etched on them
a mark on my heart that I will never forget
POLLY you inspire me daily and bless my heart
thank you endless for your love & friendship
I am linking up with another sweetheart of a gal
for her Inspiration Friday
Debra I adore you
Happy Friday ladies and may the hearts you touch on the blog
always inspire your lives
