Monday Love: Fluffy Angel


The reason angels can fly is because they take themselves lightly.  
G.K. Chesterton, "Orthodoxy"

This cute little angel came down to me from the heavens of blogland, to be exact from the Netherlands part of blogland, in a packet from my sweet friend Saskia from "Join my Joy". Saskia sure knows how to bring joy to others - she's a constant inspiration to look at the bright side and make the most of every moment!

Have a lovely flight through the week and don't forget what i have heard: We are each of us angels with only one wing, and we can only fly by embracing one another!

    Hi Martina,

    I have the sweet sister to your Angel and was lucky to have dear Saskia send me one too.
    Such lovely words you have written and we can fly by embracing our dear friends and I feel so lucky for all the love and encouragement I get from all the dear friends out there, like you, thank you.

    Happy day
    Hugs
    Carolyn

    Oh my precious one,

    YOU ARE STILL COUGHING TOO? We need an extended rest period! Stress does zap our immune system and the typical night's sleep is just not enough! I am home here, being very still and quiet, yet I am working on some new things for my Etsy shop, for the new year.

    I RECEIVE YOUR HUGS, AND I SEND YOU MORE BACK MY DEAREST ONE! Anita

    My darling friend,

    I am going in to the doctor tomorrow to hopefully rule out WALKING PNEUMONIA!!!!! I am not fatigued, but this cold just will NOT QUIT! I love your idea to take things SLOW. The nature of both of our jobs just doesn't allow for that, does it?

    HUGGING YOU AND THANKING YOU for a wonderful year of friendship and delightful art and inspiration my dear!!! BISOUS, Anita
