Can you Pay it "Forward" ?


I was strolling my routine blog's when I came across a new one and the title grabbed me. Then the simple story got me. Here is a portion of her blog:


Lucky you! The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!

2 What I create will be just for you.

3 It’ll be done this year. {might be a little while}
4. You will have no clue what it’s going to be. It may be a story. It may be poetry or maybe even some creation I haven’t even invented yet. I may draw or paint something. I may bake you something and mail it to you. I may even sew something for you. Who knows? Not you, that’s for sure! (And if I am at a loss, I may get my husband in on the fun - he is one of the most dreative people ever.)
5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.

The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must re-post this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog.

The above post was from a women named Lisa Brown & her blogsite is http://www.lisabrown.typepad.com/

***********************************************************************

I really enjoy the thought of this. Maybe your family would sign up, or friends, co-workers, new strolling by bloggers like me who just happen to land on her blog. And the Lord knows how I love to make surprises for people. I've always been a giver. Yes I do love to get gifts but giving just makes my heart feel so good. (see i told you in an earlier post. Albert gets it from me !!)

But anyway, ALBERT D-MAN AND ME (his momma) are going to pay it FORWARD...

MY OFFER WILL WORK ALITTLE DIFFERENT. YOU WILL NEED TO RESPOND TO A POST. THE POST WILL POST SOMETIME BETWEEN 2-5 PM ON THURSDAY APRIL 30TH. AND YOU WILL HAVE 24 HOURS TO COMMENT ON A QUESTION THAT I WILL POST. THERE WILL BE OTHER RULES AND LIMITATIONS BUT THAT WILL COME IN THE POST .....

One secret I can tell you is my son Albert will help pick the winners.... Okay thats all for now. PLEASE CHECK BACK THURSDAY BETWEEN 2-5 PM (EST)

Just a quick note: I was not one of the winners from Lisa's Blog where the first 5 comments were the winners. I just love giving and wanted to do this with my 10 1/2 year old son, who teaches me alot everyday about myself and giving.

bye for now...... Tell your family and friends and co-workers and lets pay it forward.
