Time to Pay it Forward

A few weeks ago I won Oakview Cottage's Pay it Forward!
http://cstower.blogspot.com/ I have never won anything and it was very exciting to wait for a surprise . . . The package arrived Tues. and it had this beautiful apron , a note pad and the sweetest card from Cindy S. Cindy made the apron herself ! I just loved it. But, so did my youngest daughter Leah, and I am afraid it has already left me . . . You see, Leah's birthday is this coming up Sat. and for her Birthday we have been getting things for her kitchen. Her colors are black and white and the apron matched her dishes perfectly. I admit I was just as happy to see her take it as I was to receive it . . .always the mother. . . So now it's my turn to Pay it Forward ! Just leave a comment and I will have a drawing. You must agree to continue to pay it forward . If you do not have a blog, just leave a e-mail address with your comment. Thanks again Cindy, from both Leah and I, we loved it.

  1. Hmm, no hints on the prize? I'm always up for a surprise so here's my entry for the hat. Should I win, it will inspire me to do a give away too! Lucky daughter you have, hope she appreciates you.

  2. How pretty! What a nice Mom you are ~ you kind of paid it forward twice, didn't you {giving it to your daughter}? I know how that works, I made that "P" on one of my previous posts for my daughter because she was eyeing one of my initial items!

  4. That's a sweet apron and it was really sweet of you to give it to her. I won a pillow at a design conference and I'm giving it to my niece since hot pink is her color.

  5. I love this idea. I'd love to be included in your give-away! I have a couple of daughters like yours. It's so good to be able to bless them with things they enjoy!
    Loved your last post on de-cluttering, I have to step back at times and look at things with fresh eyes!
    Have a great weekend.
