Pay It Forward
Remember that movie? I loved that movie. Anyway…May 27th was Give Away Day over at Sew, Mama Sew! and so I’ve been checking out a pile of blogs (hundreds actually). And in a few places I’ve seen people doing this pay it forward thing so I thought I would join in.
Here’s the rules
(I found my idea here: Bec Clarke)
I am entering into the following contract with the first 5 people who comment and then commit to do the same on their blog.
Just read below and if you feel up to the task copy the following into your blog and leave me a comment. I can’t post overseas, so it’s for US residents only.
1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make. You get what you get and you don’t have a fit.
2. What I create will be just for you, with love.
3. It’ll be done this year (2009).
4. I will not give you any clue what it’s going to be. It will be something made in the real world and not something cyber. It may be weird or beautiful. Or it may be monstrous and annoying. Heck, I might bake something for you and mail it to you. Who knows? (okay, I probably won’t bake anything because shipping that is a huge pain.)
5. I reserve the right to do something strange (but probably won’t)
6. In return, all you need to do is post this text on your blog and make 5 things for the first 5 to respond to your blog post.
7. Send your mailing address – after I contact you.
Welcome to everyone. I will however, make an effort to do something that you like based on what I see on your blog, BUT there are no guarantees.

Angie – did you find my blog through CHSFS? Just curious how you found me. Thanks for playing!
Great idea – I’m in!
Yeah through CHSFS and I see we did the quilt squares together. I did the butterfly squares.
We do not have a blog, but it is a great idea, I am going to let my sister- in-law know about it. I bet she will do it on theirs. What a fun, great idea. Have fun!
I am the aforementioned sister-in-law, and yes, I would love to do this! I have ideas swirling around in my brain…
I honestly don’t remember how I found your blog. Two years ago my husband and I were looking into adoption from Ethiopia and I started reading adoption blogs from Ethiopia. We have since moved on from Ethiopia due to some medical issues in our biological son, completed a domestic adoption from foster care, and are now looking at our second adoption from Taiwan. However, I kept reading your blog, mainly because I love the stories about your Kindergartners! You crack me up!
