During the Our Father he extended his hands to those on either side to join during the prayer....I held my breath, but they did join hands as is usually our custom.

Wow, Helen, so much good stuff given AND received. I love the extra tip for the waiter. And about the granddaughter relationship...with or without a yard sale, that bond is priceless. I have three granddaughters, and the oldest, age 11 lives close…

A Hug

Today's gift....a spontaneous hug for a crying 24 year old whom I had to inform was pregnant. These were not tears of joy, unfortunately. But the hug was of support and affirmation.
