Precious Friends ~

I have to share this with you sweet friends . . . . I spent two hours this evening talking on the phone with a dear friend that I've made with this little ol' blog. We are both creative, share ideas, have children, a husband and love talking to one another. The only difference??? I live in Georgia in the United States . . . and Su lives in FRANCE!!!!

Su has free long distance and calls me regularly and I just relish her calls!! My family knows if Su calls they need to get in gear!!! Normally I take care of all things dinner-wise but tonite Su called around 6 pm est. and it was Midnight where she lives!!! Thank goodness she's a night owl like I am or I'd never get to talk to her!

Well, DH took matters in hand and cooked the burgers on the grill and got supper under way for me. How sweet is that??? Su and I share creative ideas all the time. She gives classes in her small French village for wonderful paper card making and other paper art. I share with her all that I'm trying to do as well. We can email images almost instantly to one another and that alone just peels the miles and hours away!

I just love Su, and all the friends I've made while blogging. Just think of us as a modern day pen pals but more than that we are wonderful friends!

Happy Wednesday,

xxoo, Dawn

Thank you so much sweet friends ~

What precious comments I have received from so many of you dear friends. If my artwork does not even get on the cover ~ it's really OK, just to know how wonderful you all are and what sweet friends I have here in the Land of Blog is gift enough!!! A poem for you:

True Friendship


True friendship isn't seen with the eyes, it is felt with the heart.

When there is trust, understanding, loyalty, and sharing.

True friendship is a rare feeling, but when it is found

It has profound impact on our well-being, strength, and character.

True friendship does not need elaborate gifts

Or spectacular events in order to be valuable or valued.

To ensure long-lasting quality and satisfaction,

True friendship only needs a few key ingredients:

Undying loyalty, unmatched understanding, unsurpassed trust,

Deep and soulful secrets, and endless sharing.

These ingredients, mixed with personality and a sense of humor,

Can make a friendship last a lifetime!

This is just a thank you, my friend, for all the wonderful and colorful

Special ingredients You've brought to my life!

Pass this on to such a friend!
