Blessings come in many ways!

I wish I had pictures, but I don't! I have to tell a quick story....

In the hustle and bustle, we get so caught up with our problems that it can take you over sometimes. There has been a lot going on around here, the logging business is not very good right now, the economy is terrible it seem no matter what you make it takes more to live these days! Teenager or should I say TeenMonster.... Just got a call last night about my cousin who has breast cancer, it is not good! When first found it was a stage one, after surgery yesterday and having both removed, it has now been moved to a stage four! She is 52 years old, never been married, has no children, she believes in our Lord and Savior and has a huge family support, but it is not good! Please keep her in your prayers. (Julie Mowad) Just stuff I could go on and on....

We all are blessed in so many ways, how do we count them? Do we give God the credit HE deserves? Yesterday afternoon I had a precious little boy walk in the clinic door with big blue eyes, blond hair and a BIG smile on his face! He look up at me and said Ms. Jill this is for you! In the most brightest orange envelope you have ever seen was a beautiful "Thank you!" He had made ME a card and made his mom bring him to give it to me! My day was blessed beyond measures....

It is simple, Isaac is about 6 and his brother and a friend had gotten a new puppy a couple of weeks ago, he never said anything about wanting one at that time! When he finely told his mom he wanted one she had to start the search. She call me at the clinic and told me if I knew anyone with Austrian Puppy please let her know. The search was on for Isaac a puppy! I ask around, but had not been successful in finding one. Friday afternoon, Isaac and his family stopped at the clinic to show me his new found puppy "STAR". They found him while in Brookhaven. That was the happiest little blue eyed boy with the Big smile on his face I had ever seen. I did not do anything, but in Isaac's eyes I helped him find his puppy. I don't know if he knows how much he has blessed my heart. I guess I should say he has stole my heart. Isaac will always have a special place in my heart! I love you... Isaac! Thank you Lord for little blessing like Isaac and "STAR".

Thank you Lord for the simplicity of life!

Aww, Jill, this is precious! I'm glad Isaac touched your heart. As far as he's concerned you had as much to do with him getting that puppy as anyone just because you offered to help look. Thanks for your friendship!! :-)
