Lots do shoe boxes here but we collect for friends as in our own church we do large grocery and treat boxes for the disadvantaged in the neighbourhood.<br /><br />We still have lots of leaves and they are turning now.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05799594980600477320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-38097670343186060042009-11-07T17:01:50.216-08:002009-11-07T17:01:50.216-08:00Hello Lorrie,

Thx for sharing, Lorri. <br /><br />Also, your descriptive autumn story makes me feel I'm right there with you.

It is really great to hear a first hand account of what you experienced and that those boxes really are making a difference! <br /><br />I loved your description of the leaves scuttling along like crabs... so true, winter is upon us. As for my dining room (which I hope will one day very soon be rescued from all my art supplies) is painted off-white and the trim is a wheat color. So, it's very neutral and versatile. It also has 3 large windows which lend lots of natural light (great for the artwork). Hope you're having a blessed day!<br /><br />ChristiCharm and Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04930920593855400694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-42538920863754600592009-11-05T11:23:40.473-08:002009-11-05T11:23:40.473-08:00To actually be on the end where you hand the parce...To actually be on the end where you hand the parcels into the hands of children.... wow! I've loved this tradition of filling boxes for children. The joy of gathering things you hope they will enjoy.<br /><br />I remember one time I put in a little box of paints and an artbook... I had the feeling that maybe there was a little child who was dreaming about art. And so I prayed that that particular box would reach that little person.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing..... now I'm really in the mood.Brenda @ Its A Beautiful Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02955486477303938670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-84430496431640665942009-11-05T10:18:30.219-08:002009-11-05T10:18:30.219-08:00This is the kind of story that brings tears in my ...This is the kind of story that brings tears in my eyes !!
