Our blackboard at home this week says;
"Devise good. Make noble plans"
& so during dinner on Saturday night we came up with a list of good plans...
A plan: We made a trip to Woolies after the dishes were done to buy a little something to help say thank-you to each of the children's leaders at church. They tied ribbon around their lil gifts and then made cards...
Making cards:
Remember the morning we made all these cards Anya??

I was inspired by Amanda Powell to: "Make 50 all occasion cards for the whole year. (They will then replace the $5 spent every birthday, wedding baby shower etc. That's $250 already)"
It was great we were set for the year!
These days we have a drawer with bits and pieces to assemble a card as we need them.
I like this suggestion too (I ripped out from I don't know where?) I got out again for the kids writing cards:
It’s as simple as 1,2,3……3 sentences:
#1. Conveys: I miss, appreciate or am thinking of you.
#2. Lets the reader know they are awesome or special to you and why… #3. Says I believe in or am praying for you and a verse or inspirational something.
