Gift from La Paz, Bolivia!

One of my best friends is a 1st year teacher in La Paz, Bolivia, and when she came home this week to celebrate Christmas, we were able to go out to lunch, catch up, and she gave me this present!


The flowers are made of wool by women living in La Paz and this is their income. As she described to me, it is such a different life down there than it is here in America, and it has reminded me to be thankful for what I have. As you can see, I placed the flowers in a mug that is sitting on our long shelf featuring our mugs and small antique collectables in the family room. Thanks Joy!
