Just Because ...

I was having a bad day yesterday ... just "blah".  I was double checking to make sure I had locked all the doors before dark when I happened to see a package on my front porch.  I knew I hadn't ordered anything but the package was for me. 

One of my wonderful blogging friends had sent me a surprise package.  It was from Melinda of Tales From My Empty Nest.  She is a wonderful Christian lady and every few days she is sending me a handwritten note or postcard.

I opened the package and saw the card with a note on the front and it said "Surprise!  Some treats for you ... just because! 

The card even had a sunflower on the front.

Melinda told me everytime she sees a sunflower she thinks of Amber.  I have written so many times of Amber's love of sunflowers.  Melinda had seen the sunflower ornament (it was hard to get a good pic of it ... it is so shiny) and thought of Amber.  She also sent me an ornament with an angel on top to put Amber's picture in for the Christmas tree too! 

I thought this was so sweet and so unexpected.  If you have never visited Melinda's blog go by and say "Hi" for me :)

Thank you Melinda! 

I have had other bloggers send me notes saying everytime they see a sunflower or the color purple they think of Amber ... this makes me happy!  It's like a little note from Amber :)

Thanks for visiting and God Bless!
