I knew it!! When my darlin' Jen wrote me about this happening, I asked her to post it here. I just knew it would fit. I always envisioned this thread as a place for those stories that just leap out of the bards. You know the ones, the stories that just tell themselves.........the ones that show the little places where we store our most treasured emotions. You are a bard, my dear. This one proves it. Thanks for sharing a wonderful bit of yourself and Mary with us.

And isn't it something that the people with the biggest hearts (although in 'spaw's case we gotta say biggest and most rebuilt......LOL) are the ones that responded right away? As will the other good people here.

All the best,

Mick
