Thanks LA - I will think about it. :o)
I love your list! Yes, I caught the theme! I like how you are kind to people whether you know them or not and that you basically would do just about anything for anyone in need! Jesus smiles! Anyone who knows you is certainly blessed! Seems you spend a lot of time at dumpsters looking for dental appliances :) I once lost my retainer and that was all she wrote...
Papa, I look forward to your answers;)
Robin, I smile and laugh at your comments. . .you have become such a welcomed blessing to my life - thank you. I wish I had known you when you lost your retainer, I bet I would have found it! I made my kids get their retainers in neon, glow-in-the-dark colors, they are much easier to spot :)
I am just slightly embarrased about the reality t.v. thing, but they say the first step is admitting that there is a problem LOL
:)De
De, You crack me up!
From your experience, I know you would have found my lost retainer :)
I really enjoy your blog and all your great stories! You enrich by sharing! Thanks!
6. You stayed with your friend during the most terrifying and bizarre day of her life. And you helped her think straight during it. God provides the right friends at the right times......:)
Oh, yeah, I forgot about that. . .but even if I remembered, the list was only to 5 ;)
I know you'd do the same for me :)
