Proverbs 17:17 A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
It is so encouraging to have friends and family, as I do, who send notes, phone calls, gifts, and prayers of encouragement and love in Christ. Leah, is most definitely among them. She has ministered in prayers, notes, and gifts (of all sorts) to our family in times of trials and not.
She was kind enough, to cast her thoughts toward me liking Bleak House, of which I told her reminds me of my darling mother at the time of Claire's birth, after all the kids were mostly over their 2 week engagement with sickness. You see, Mom and I hardly get to do things together b/c of our geographical separation. So Mom, shocked, if I remember correctly, couldn't believe I had never seen Bleak House. In her amazement, and I'm guessing, delight, introduced me to it, as a beloved, old friend. And somehow, I knew I'd like it,too. How we stayed up late, till our heads were bobbing and eyes were stinging.........just one more scene.
So what does Leah do? You guessed it.....she goes and buys the movie for me!!!! So now, I am among the ranks of happy Bleak House owners.
I was wanting to get this post up earlier this week, but before I could, another shower of kindness was poured upon us by Miss Leah.
You see, this Espresso by Nes Cafe is a favorite amongst us. They took it off the shelves. Just like that........with one of those blasted recall notes. You know the kind, that discombobulates the mind. REASON: Shard of glass meets espresso,if I remember correctly, according to Leah's lengthy and thorough investigation,
Today, unbeknowns to Murray and me, being the first day it's back on the shelf, Leah secretly purchased a bottle and left it in our mailbox.
So a humble and hearty thank you goes out to Leah, tonight; as well a prayer of returned blessings for her.
Good night........
