I am a big fan of paying it forward, and random acts of kindness. There is nothing more heart warming than doing something for someone without expecting anything in return. It shows you just how meaningful the simplest act can be to a complete stranger. We all need more of that in our lives. Maybe then there wouldn't be so much sadness and despair.<br />(((HUGS))) Susanne :) Susanne Tyreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04271812578614840958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8776767262067674902.post-30437591417647710632012-12-20T11:52:26.624-08:002012-12-20T11:52:26.624-08:00all I asked for for Christmas was cutco knives...

That cupcake box is so cute, and I bet the cupcakes were delicious. The thought of Noah laughing so hard watching that movie puts a huge smile on my face! I love your JOY letters. How cute are those?! I also love a good knife set. I think we could stand to use a new one, but I'm still pretty happy with the one we bought about 10 years ago. It just makes chopping and slicing so much more fun. Sorry about your finger though! I would have probably done the same thing. :) Thanks for lifting my spirits this morning with your sweet post.

I think that each of those acts have a wonderful ripple effect that brings us closer to not letting evil get the best of us, but rather helps us overcome evil by doing good. Thanks for posting, Kris.
