A random act of kindness


Just look at what the mailman brought me!  That dear sweet Becky Bee gifted me with a random act of kindness!  I feel so honored to receive this little cupcake pincushion.


Here it is closer!  Isn't it just the sweetest thing?



This couldn't have come at a better time.  We had just returned from my father-in-law's graveside services when my honey brought it in from the mailbox.

Becky didn't know this was going on when she sent this to me.  It was one of those serendipitous things that sometimes happens.  Needless to say it really brightened an othewise somber day.

Thank you so very much dear friend for thinking of me and for unknowingly making my day a little better with your kindness.  It will bring a smile to my face and make me think of you each time I look at it.  It is appreciated more than you can know.

Until next time,

The Inspired Stitcher
