The next time he comes by tell him we need more people like him in this world.<BR/><BR/>Brandon is starting meds to see if they can control his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I don't like the thought of that, because of the side effects but he has been having some trouble with compulsive behavior lately. We will be keeping a close eye on him. Please keep him in your prayers.<BR/><BR/>Blessings and hugs,<BR/>MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08175754179624182953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34398479.post-85507932948665501802008-07-13T02:59:00.000-04:002008-07-13T02:59:00.000-04:00Beautiful post as always.

Sounds like you as well as the delivery man know how to love the beautiful children, truly love them. That is one of the things I admire about your posts, the love comes through loud and clear!CiCihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08615265608675467505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34398479.post-1783575632284971282008-07-12T03:47:00.000-04:002008-07-12T03:47:00.000-04:00Beautiful Jeni!

I admire your attitude and how you count your blessings. <BR/><BR/>I like to think and I even believe that some things are ordained by God, such as you receiving your stimulus check to pay for the oil and the delivery guy having a child of his own that has Aspergers.<BR/><BR/>I had something similar happen to me today. I was at work and I never bring my cell phone into the office. Well today I did. It rang and it was someone I had not heard from in quite some time, over a year probably. Anyhow, another couple, friends of theirs, are having a struggle where alcoholism is involved. This couple have two toddlers. I was informed that the wife was taking the kids and leaving the husband. He is the one with the alcohol problem. I was asked for advice and whether or not I would talk to this man if he is willing to let me. Of course I said absolutely.<BR/><BR/>Here is why I think it was all in God's timing. #1...I never take my cell phone into work but I did today. #2...I just happen to have the next 4 days off which will allow me some time to speak with this guy and direct him and take him into a good detox facility if he will allow me too.<BR/><BR/>I'm rambling, but I think you get my drift. <BR/><BR/>Peace my friend!<BR/>KeithKeithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08751608263311019166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34398479.post-9001716324088415242008-07-11T22:18:00.000-04:002008-07-11T22:18:00.000-04:00I am soooo glad you did this today!
