A Special Gift From Someone Very Special
"To give a gift is a gift within itself."The Generosity Award
from Kat of Candles Crafts and Whatnot
and Soy Wax Candles Blog
When Kat and I started communicating outside the blogosphere, that's when I found out that her sweetness and thoughtfulness go beyond words. This friend has no idea at all how much her encouragement meant to me. On those times when I doubted myself, she rooted for me and made me believe in my writing skills again. She threw in ideas when I felt that I ran out of things to write about.
We laughed together at our silliness and felt bad for each other's sorry state. We exchanged pictures of our families and loved ones. She cheered me up with all those photos of Edward Cullen which have found their way to my Facebook photo album. :D
The friendship goes beyond the silly and mundane stuff though. I found a kindred spirit here... perhaps my sister in a past life.
So when I saw what were inside the package, my heart melted.
She sent me a lovely handmade RED (our favorite color!) Polymer Clay covered pen (with a short description and instruction for refilling). What made it more special is the fact that she did it herself! Awwwwww the sweet message in her card moved me to tears.
Sweet Kat, thank you so much for being a wonderful friend! I am truly grateful!

Some of you may already have these awards but I still want you to accept them as a token of my appreciation for your friendship. Please don't feel any pressure at all to post them. They are my "gift" to all of you.
