Here are the two little chickies I made for
the toy society toys for strangers project! I'm finishing stuff like crazy and crossing things off my list. Yay! I bagged them up according to the directions and took Wolf out to drop them. I'm trying to teach him a lesson in giving by having him give toys to strangers on his birthday.
I let him choose the locations. He first chose a low-income apartment house complex and we tied it to a fence. Some ladies across the street were watching us and when we left I saw one of them head over there! Next he really wanted to put one at his old preschool, so we did, though we were watched by a gaggle of kids in the front window. As we got in the car the owner came out with about seven kids and was reading it. I yelled, "it's safe!" and she seemed relieved. I didn't hang around to see how she'd split one toy among them all!
Yay for paying it forward!

They are great and I am sure they have great new homes!
Wow...the toys are great! And the project is awesome. You are full of love and have a great heart! I'm glad I found your blog
People are so suspicious nowadays, it's getting difficult to do an anonymous good deed!! Good for you for persevering.
That's true juliette, I actually considered that when I decided where to drop them. I decided against inside a library or something because I didn't want people to think I was "abandoning a package". Good way to get arrested these days!
You are AWESOME!!!!!
