Take the Time... Make the Card

Truthfully, I didn’t think they cared!  So when times got crazy and I was prioritizing my time...I didn’t do it!  What, you ask?  I didn’t make handmade cards for my daughter’s birthdays this year. The first is in July and we were busy prepping and then making memories in Waco at Magnolia. The second was blessed with a Thanksgiving birthday this year and as we were prepping to host Thanksgiving...I just simply didn’t. As we were talking about Christmas and I was asking what they wanted...they both said “a handmade card, we didn’t get them for our birthdays this year.” {insert heart breaking}  I didn’t realize they meant that much to them.  After all, one birthday was spent in Waco on vacation and the other was spent Black Friday shopping (her choice, not mine). Then, they proceeded to share with me where they keep them {my heart exploded}!!  I didn’t know they kept them all. So this year...I commit to making the time and I made the cards.  There will never be another birthday without a handmade card. Sometimes the smallest gestures mean the most.  So take the time and MAKE THE CARD!!
