vriendin

I have a very dear one of these .... she's Dutch. And that word means friend in Dutch. :o)

My vriendin, Fransie, has sent love a long way across the ocean. She has shared her traditions with my family.

A package arrived today, full of beautiful, delicate, warm-up-your-home-and-heart, spring colored decorated items to be hung on Easter branches in my house. The same kinds of decorations that she has in her home right now. I now have them here .... ready to brighten the room, the air, and the spirit for Easter.

All the way from Holland. :O)

This vriendin, is a true gem. She is one of the neatest ladies I have ever met. She is kind, and giving, and a wonderful addition to my life.

Thanks, vriendin, we loved the surprise gift of love! I promise a picture of the gifts ....

*smooch*

;o)

Dude.

DUDE.

You made my day. My whole week. No kidding.

What an incredibly sweet thing to write. Especially with the Dutch word thrown in. That touched me.

I just can't stop smiling :D

:) Yeah, that Fransie and her wonderful packages can really lift you up. I'm happy to read that you were able to return the favor so quickly, especially when she needed a bit of lifting, too. Hugs to you both for being so great!
