Traci, please email me your mailing address and your box will be on its' way!  Thank you so much for your wonderful comment too!

I look forward to sharing some of THE CUTEST things that I have received in the mail from some of THE CUTEST bloggers - ever - this week. 

Today, I want to share with you about my friend, Terry Grahl, and her amazing and heartwarming mission in life ...

You can read all about Terry here and here and here.  I think your heart will be as touched as mine at ALL of the wonderful things that are happening as a result of Terry's incredible vision.  It IS amazing, isn't it? 

And our friend, Brenda, is having a VERY special giveaway that I think you will enjoy participating in and she is sharing more about Enchanted Makeovers here as she is the official Social Media Blogging Specialist for the organization! Yay Brenda!!   

As women, we wear so many hats.  We ALL have gifts to share.  And how is that so?

Because our life is a gift and it is meant to be opened.

And celebrated ...  and shared ...

Even if it is just one cookie at a time.

Because, of course, we want EVERYONE to live ...

So pretty please with sugar on top, visit Terry and Brenda when you have the chance and if you can, share a warm cookie and a glass of milk OR a little something-something from your heart to help make a sister-in-need's heart blissfully happy too.

And again, thank YOU for always making MY heart soar.

I can't imagine life without you.

Love you MUCH,

Kim

Bless you, Kim, for your efforts to help women from all over the world. From helping them to decorate their homes through your magazine writing...to blogging about your lovely home and colorful finds on a regular basis. You were my inspiration, and continue to be. Thanks for leading me to Enchanted Makeovers. And for being "an always friend" to me and all the women who love and follow you on your everyday journey.

I'm welling up here!!!!! I love what Enchanted Makeovers is doing - I feel like starting something similar in the UK - trust the lovely USA to be at the forefront of something as touching as this.

Enchanted Makeovers: What a lovely environment for people who find themselves displaced. Thank you, Kim, for sharing such a neat story. We should all take risks like she did, becoming uncomfortable in order to make other lives more comfortable.

We LOVE you Kim! Your such a sweet sweet soul:)
Hugs..

Good morning Kim :)

Congratulations to Traci! Lucky girl :)

I can't remember where in my life I've seen that glass next to the yummy cookie, but it takes me back to my childhood. My grandma must have had something similar... hmmm..

Anyway, I'm off to visit Brenda...

love you,

I bought the book this weekend. What a great idea...wish I would have come up with it. Congrats on being featured:)

Kim, You are an amazing lady. One of the reasons that I started blogging was out of loneliness. I had just moved to a new city a long way away from home and with a busy husband I spend much of my time alone or helping people who take and take but give nothing back. I saw what a great bunch of "friends" you had made through your blog and I longed to be in touch with people who seemed to care. It is a slow process, as making friends always is, but I am happy that it is coming along. I appreciate your kinds words and I love reading the comments that people leave you. You are truly a wonderful lady. Big hugs, ~cindy s~

Hi Elyse!

The glass is one of four that I found at Goodwill - it is cute isn't it? :-)
And it is vintage for sure!

Hi Kim!

I am so excited! Last week Terry Grahl contacted me from Enchanted Makeovers! We are going to partner! I She is coming to KC in October and I will be doing a workshop in coordination with them at the women's shelter here. And, they added me to the team. I just saw you are on the team! SO WONDERFUL! I look forward to the unfolding of many beautiful things from the creative intentions of us all to help wherever and whomever we can....

I know how you feel about the letters. My mom passed away about 6 years ago. Every time I see the card she gave me signed"Love you, Mom" I just remember how much I love and miss her.
