Brings tears to my eyes!

Today when we stopped at the post office for our mail, I had a yellow slip telling me we had a package. Now we had not ordered anything so who would be sending us a package?

It was addressed to me. The return address told me that Bette Anderson sent it to me. I had worked with her husband Jim for years before he retired. And he has been gone for a number of years now.

I finally got thru all the tape and opened it. Unfolded the letter and it was from a child. Andrew wrote a very nice note and told me that he had given 67 prayer shawls to people who have or have had cancer. His own mom has cancer. He wanted to bring it to me in person, but with Eagles and school was not able to do so.

Now personally I don't know the child, but I do know his grandma and his late grandpa. His grandmother had told me that his mother had cancer.
I do not know how old Andrew is, but he is special! He brought tears to my eyes! I must meet this young man!

Very beautifully knit. I shall always treasure it. Plus every time I see it now I will be reminded to also include his mother in my prayers!
Thank you very much Andrew!
