Thank you so much for the lovely compliment. It is so good to hear about your support for DV. It is very sad and I know they will be happy to receive those bags.
I took my mentee, who is a senior in high school, to get some things from the collection. I have been mentoring her since 9th grade. Unfortunately, her parents aren’t in a position to do certain things for her. The first Christmas that I mentored her, I asked her about her plans during Christmas break. She told me that her parents didn’t have money for Christmas and it broke my heart. Later that night, I sent her a text and told her to tell her parents to meet us on Saturday. We went to Hobby Lobby and got them a Christmas tree with all of the trimmings and a gift card so her parents could buy some things for them for Christmas. Her parents were so appreciative.
We are blessed and thankful to be in a position to help others. It is very silly to throw a fit when we miss the UPS driver waiting on a luxury item that we don’t need when most people don’t have food for their next meal. This is why I practice kindness and show gratitude always! Thanks for sharing your story.

And thank your for sharing your lovely mentoring of a young woman, and generosity for the last 4 years. What a touching story, and it is so important for young people to have all the kind helpful adults in their lives that they can. What a wonderful Christmas you helped with :heart:

And yes, it’s easy to get caught up in being home for deliveries or to wait for something we want, but you are so right. I have all the bags I NEED, and many I simply want. But to make the world better with kindness and gratitude and generosity feels wonderful, usually to others, and certainly to me - we never know what someone is living through when we hold a door open and smile and say good morning or wave someone into traffic or volunteer or donate food or...... in these chaotic cruel times right now kindness and paying it forward count for a lot. Here’s a virtual hug to you EmmJay! And to all of you that likely do wonderful things too. It’s clear from so many posts here there are wonderful people in this forum.

And it’s still ok to love our things!! :flowers:

Omg that purple is tdf! Love them both but I want everything in purple! My husband says I’m like Marie in Breaking Bad.
I AM NOT! I don’t have a purple blender or coffeemaker :biggrin:

And why not DrTr? Hahah I’m a green girl at heart, but this colour and style was a combo too irresistible.

Gorgeous bags for the ballet — hope you have a fun night. Your Capucines is absolutely stunning — and maybe one of the prettiest Cap ever made IMO :smile:

no wonder you couldn’t resist! It is just such a gorgeous bag. I too would like a capucine, got offered one last summer in NY in the exact color of yours but it was a tiny one and not practical at the time. But I can enjoy yours vicariously! It looks gorgeous and practical, carried open or closed. Thanks for sharing.
