A Bible Lesson for my children. And myself.

I Corinthians 13:4-7

Love waits without complaining.

Love is always kind to others.

Love doesn't want other people's toys or money or clothes.

Love never brags about what it has or what it can do.

Love doesn't think it is better than other people.

Love uses its best manners, always and with everyone.

Love says 'you first' instead of 'me first.'

Love doesn't throw fits.

Love doesn't tattle, nor does it laugh when others are sad.

Love doesn't think it's fun or funny to break the rules.

Love never, ever lies.

Love always hopes in God.

Love believes that God is good, no matter what happens.

Love is a true friend, no matter what happens.

Love lasts forever and ever.

Its All in the Box

DISCLAIMER: In fear of sounding over-absorbed and self-indulgent, I post this.

Sometimes there is just nothing that compares to getting a Vera Bradley package in the mail. In fact, if I were to start my own business, I would want to strive for excellence in my packaging, comparing every thing I did to Vera Bradley. VB makes you feel special from the first slit of the box. And after you've had one of those days where you have given all of yourself as a mom, wife, daughter, sister, Christ-follower, FILL IN THE BLANK and find yourself just entirely, completely exhausted? You get a box in the mail and it makes you feel so special. Crazy! I know, but that's how getting a VB package in the mail makes me feel sometimes. It could be something different for you but that's all it takes for me.

I recieved this package as a gift but am looking forward to another VB package to arrive soon...that I purchased for myself.

Thanks Mandy for making my day. And, to VB, don't change a thing...I love it and look forward to the package every time I order.
