Random Act of Kindness

I was so excited when I opened my mailbox today! I saw an envelope from my friend Jo Anne from The Carter Clan. It had a lump in it and I wondered what in the world could this be. So I tore it open and found these...

These pictures do not do these justice. They are gorgeous silver earrings with pink. I have never owned a pair of earrings like this. They are just awesome! I tried to put them in and take a pic, but the pic didn't turn out to my liking because my rosacea is flared and it looked horrible.



Aren't these awesome!



Then she even included a hand-made card. I LOVE anything handmade. Joann you have no idea how much you made my day! I have never been the recipient of a random act of kindness before. THANK YOU!!!!!!

    Hi Mary, thanks so much for still dropping by and visiting my lil' ol blog. Hope you're having a fab weekend!
    You are definitely deserving of a random act of kindness and such a pretty gift too.
    Our boys have birthdays very close. My youngest just turned 16 on the 19th. He's a Mama's boy too and tells me everyday that he loves me and that I'm beautiful!
    What a good son! LOL.
