It was a "snow day" here in Ottawa today. Hopefully it will slow down tomorrow.

Your Christmas decorations are just beautiful, I hope you have a wonderful holiday season.<br /><br />Bernie, I like your new picture, I finally figured out the snow on my blog today. only 3 weeks, ha ha! That is great that you sponsor a family Bernie. I do what I can but it never seems to be enough.<br /><br />Caroline, oh I am glad I reminded you of Olive. How amazing to have written two books! The blogs I mentioned usually have bears on them, all vintage bears, beautiful stuff, so I felt blessed to find this little one.<br /><br />Cora I really like that idea of the stars on the trees with a name on the back. It is a wonderful idea.<br /><br />Char if you were here today, you would be hiding in the house in flannel pjs with a housecoat and a scarf, probably leg warmers. Man I forget how cold it gets here sometimes, and it is not even cold compared to way up north. only minus 30. I am so glad you liked her, I thought you might since you commented twice about her. I always like my art to go to a good home. Are you like that. Take care have a good day.<br /><br />Kamana, I am only as kind as the people I surround myself with. They are the ones that make me want to be better!Like you my friend.<br /><br />TechnoBabe, She is precious isn't she! She made me smile a few times today. People are all more precious than things. When I worked in Retail, I worked every 24th and 26th. when I think of all the Christmases I did not go home because of work, it makes me cringe! and now my Dad is not here! there is nothing more than our loved ones...I guess I am growing up! sometimes lifes lessons are hard!<br /><br />Sherry Lee, I am sure there are angels all around us. You love the little lace crocheted collar reminds me of all my doilies I like. And a friend about 15 years younger said one day, oh my Grandma had all of these too. and I thought okay darling your aging me. lol.<br /><br />Eternally distracted, nothing makes me smile more than when I read a post of yours like last night. I about fell off my chair. I love someone that says exactly what they think. Your a treasure.<br /><br />SueAnn, yes I love me little friends, Christmas is giving and sharing, i wish we could carry this feeling all year round without the commercialism. Take care.Cindy https://www.blogger.com/profile/03552572705763406197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3876843150877300869.post-49436362131612624852009-12-07T15:13:49.174-08:002009-12-07T15:13:49.174-08:00Hi Cinner, I wanted to come over and wish you a ha...Hi Cinner, I wanted to come over and wish you a happy holiday season:-). Here in the south, we have too many homeless during the winter months~as they come down seeking warmer nights. They always need angels and blankets and they are how I give back:-)~xo~Janetshabbyfufuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02306547264571758892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3876843150877300869.post-84803606761018488582009-12-07T10:57:39.534-08:002009-12-07T10:57:39.534-08:00I receive so much when I am blessed enough to shar...I receive so much when I am blessed enough to share with others, I sponser a family each year at Christmas and it just fills my heart to be able to give them a little joy.<br />Love your bears, I could give you about 50 more.

On the back of each star is a gift the child wants, their name and age. we buy the gifts and return them to the church and they deliver them to the children's home. It so rewarding to know that you are making someone's Christmas special.Corahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11017358295216513868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3876843150877300869.post-52678455326798461492009-12-07T10:46:02.414-08:002009-12-07T10:46:02.414-08:00beautiful find!!! i hope you're having a beau...beautiful find!!! i hope you're having a beautiful day.
