Merriment Day 20

Christmas is not just fun and gifts. We know that. We also know the best gift is when we give of ourselves. Whether it is time to make something, time to visit, time to send a note. To me those are the best gifts. In my card group we draw names every year. A few years back, my friend Linda Attanasio drew mine. Imagine my joy when I opened this.
A primitive nativity she had made herself.
A close up! This friend is the opposite of prim and that she did this for me! Certainly makes me Merry.
Thanks for coming Through My Back Door  where life is good.

    That is absolutely precious, Betty! (Funny how some of those "non-prim" gals can just nail it down perfectly when their heart is in the right place....) LOVE it!! Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin
