A Creative Act of Kindness

We continue to be grateful for the many acts of kindness that have come Isabel's way during the last fourteen months.

Visits and phone calls and letters.

Autumn flowers and bouquets of ripened grain.

Humorous stories and news clippings from various newspapers.

And just recently a creative gift from one of Isabel's friends at Abernethy.

Mum has maintained her Abernethy involvement by reading news reports, asking questions, giving advice to committees-!!, and inquiring about the health and whereabouts of everyone she knows.

She has missed seeing all the building and renovation projects at home. Last week, one of her friends filmed a 10-minute video of all the external renovations and building projects in Aber. He then travelled to Regina with his laptop to show Isabel what's been happening at home in the last 14 months. Mum asked him to play the video again as she studied new colours of paint and new garages, and saw construction add-ons and inquired after the owners. Twenty-two projects in all!

Mum spelled out CHEERS to all the fine work in sprucing up the village.

With gratitude for the many creative ways that kindness continues to come into our lives,
Isabel and Her Girls
