As many of you know, Nia, who lives in Turkey, and who I only know via the blogosphere, handmade me four pillow covers and posted them to me a little while ago – a gift! I found some filling and took one in for Anthony at the nursing lodge. Today I finally remembered to take a couple of pictures of it.
I have bought Nia four little Australian things which, as soon as I have found where I put them, I will post off to her to say thank you. Here is her site but I realize many of you already know this wonderful woman.
Anthony loves the pillow, but said, a bit sadly, “It’s too good to be in here.”
“But you’re here,” I said.
“I know,” he said, stroking Nia’s pillow gently.
“Stop this nonsense,” I said, picking up the pillow and smacking him lightly on the head with it.
He actually smiled!
Thank you, Nia.

Dear Julie, you are welcome, million times welcome to my humble world. You are so nice and your family too. It is unbelievable to feel as if you are my friend for a long time… BUT this is because of your beautiful soul and heart. I am so happy you both liked them… Thank you, God Bless you all, love, nia
You are the best, Nia! I am having the pillow that is like Anthony’s but with a different tassle and the other two are going into a room we are getting ready for visitors – you are amazing! Lots of love Julie
