LET THE HOLIDAY SEASON BEGIN...A GIVEAWAY

Some people come into our lives
and quickly go. Some stay for a
while, leave footprints on our
hearts, and we are never,
ever the same. 

~Flavia Weedn


So many of you have
touched my soul and become
embedded in my heart. 
I laugh with you, worry about
you, cry for you, cheer
for you and pray for you,
you are my friends and
I am better because of
you.

With the holiday season
upon us I thought it
would be fun to begin with
a small giveaway, a paper
bird to hang on your tree
or maybe in a window.

Leave me a comment
and I'll let the random
generator pick next Thursday,
December 6th.

  2. Oh that is lovely - I adore the paper that you used. Mmm this would not just be up for Christmas I think it would hang year round from the curtain rail in the bedroom where we sit on Saturday mornings and have our morning cuppa, looking out at the garden (and planning the weekend chores)

  8. Tracey you are one of the most truly genuine people I've "met" in this little blog world of ours. I feel blessed to know you and am so grateful for all the advice and support you've shared and with me. I thought about you the other day as I was making a trio of southern dishes: hominy, sweet potato fries, and collard greens. :)

  11. I'm so happy to call you one of my dearest blogger friends. You are so very generous and kind. Please don't feel you need to add me to the giveaway. Far to far to send it to Oz.

  12. Dear Tracey
    The quote at the top of the page and your own words which followed left me with quite a lump in my throat. Very fitting for me this week and such kind words to say about us all. I know exactly how you feel. Blogging has opened up a whole new world of likeminded friends for me, whose lives and loves I follow with hearfelt friendship but who I have never met. Its such a precious thing and kind of wonderful dont you think?
    The tiny paper bird is just adorable and would look perfect on my tree. I'm not sure whether the giveaway is open to friends across the pond, but if so please count me in.

  13. Tracey I so love reading your posts. You are such a kind hearted person! I've said it before but I'll keep saying it. I so wish that we all could meet for knitting and tea and conversation. But I am so so glad for the computer in order for all of us to "know" each other! What a beautiful bird you're giving away. You are so generous!
