She quietly did a lot of special things for people just because she saw a need. Perhaps the explanation of lack of good news lies in the many doing their good deeds behind the scenes and quietly..."laying up treasures in heaven"...not because there isn't any good news. Let's hope so. By-the-way, my daughter-in-law is a very special person. I am very lucky to have her!

Tha's wonderful. No, it's not strange to love your mother in law. I know I love mine. Actually, should add that I'm in my second marriage. I still love my first mother in law very much too. She is also a selfless woman...so yes, I've been very blessed in that regard.<BR/><BR/>By the way, I was touched by your memories of singing at a nursing home. That is a very thoughtful thing to do.<BR/><BR/>Peace,<BR/>LisaLisa McGlaunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05586141320197189197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7182988312165929572.post-3388122713221386122007-12-17T22:30:00.000-08:002007-12-17T22:30:00.000-08:00Sandra,I look forward to reading your post.

Too bad we didn't have time to produce a video or something like this so we would get to know them, but I believe it's even more altruistic when you give and you don't even know to whom...Gabrielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01226955076385591763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7182988312165929572.post-29614893497199796682007-12-17T19:13:00.000-08:002007-12-17T19:13:00.000-08:00Hi Lisa,I know what you mean about being reluctant...Hi Lisa,<BR/><BR/>I know what you mean about being reluctant to "show off" your good deeds.

In fact, you're meeting the "Blogger's Unite' challenge every day as far as I'm concerned. Your posts are about real people and real actions in the real world, and the fact that you're pointing out their examples to the rest of us makes you a partner in their effort. It really only took one line in your post today to inspire me to look for something like Child Haven in my area. Hey, if I was handing out the award--you'd have it already. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the inspiration!<BR/><BR/>GinaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
