I Was Blessed!


Hello Sweet Ladies,

I am putting this post up on Sunday evening. We had such a quiet and restful day. When we were leaving for church we were getting flakes of snow. The wind was blowing and it looked beautiful watching the snow flying. After we got out of church it had quit and then the sun came out and melted all the snow. It was one of those "every kind of weather days".

Later in the afternoon we had our friend Alicia out for supper. We fixed her roast, mashed potaotes, nummy gravy........and our canned green beans. Peanut Butter Pie for dessert also. When she came in she had a "big" brown grocery bag" filled with red berries of every kind! Ladies "look no more"...... for a red wreath. I will be able to make up a new one using the frame of my old one. I just need to wash up the green leaves..........and make a new bow. I will have it almost looking like it looked before. Talk about a sweet blessing!!!!!!!! It really was a God thing for me. A simple act of kindness...........but it did my heart so much good! I am asking the Lord who I can love on now!!!!!!!

I am so excited...........my Tonya got the info. for Vitaliy's address. I am going to be getting a letter and some stickers sent off. That will help me feel like I am in touch at least. I keep seeing pictures of Vitaliy............miss that little boy!

Hope you all have a wonderful Monday. I am going to be sporting my silly old hat a little different. It was kind of funny this morning. I was fixing my hair and thought I would try something different with the "HAT". It is still so ugly.......but I was a little bit happier with the way it looked. No....... I will not show you in case you were going to ask. You would laugh! Promise!

God Bless you!

Hugs from my farm to your HOME!

  3. Maybe you can dress your hat up with some cute buttons, pins, flowers? Vitality is in the Lord's hands and you can rest knowing that!

  5. You know Linda, I'm thinking that as talented as you are and so creative too, that you could find something to add to that hat to make it a "you" hat. :) I know Vitaliy is going to be sooo very happy to hear from you. He'll certainly know that you care for him and miss him.

  6. Oh Linda,
    I just know that did your heart good and you were so appreciative. How thoughtful of Alicia! Can't wait to see the wreath up and going again. The simpliest acts of kindness are often the most meaningful. And who could resist doing something for YOU...you are always so good to others.
    Thinking of your little V and know he is feeling your love.
