I...Tears are flowing both of sadness and gladness. It's amazing how one little act like a tithe of their savings bring a lifetime change in a child's life. It's wonderful~God works in mysterious ways. Today's lost children are in foster homes, most very good, some not, but at least they start out in an family environment. God Bless your warm heart for sharing this heartfelt experience. Ann's 'compensation offer' turned into a most appreciated gift for the children of the Home for Children. God is sooo good.<br />and yes, I have many Cannon towels that are so soft. It must be the cotton~:)<br />love n' hugs from up north where we are digging out once again. It will be short-lived as we are in for warmer weather.Darhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16642092433299872708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-1471084128504592342019-04-12T08:38:36.245-04:002019-04-12T08:38:36.245-04:00What an endearing story.

I think it's better to be in a family environment when it's a good one. Truly there are so many sad tales of the ways kids grow up these days. Fathers in prison and mom's who overdose. It seems like the news is full of children being taken away from abusive parents. It's just heart breaking for sure.I'm mostly known as 'MA'https://www.blogger.com/profile/12107548726472541669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-9610670800197824762019-04-12T00:15:27.539-04:002019-04-12T00:15:27.539-04:00Such a heart warming story!

You hear horror stories sometimes about what went on in places like this, but this doesn't seem to be part of that. I would have gladly supported it if I was at the gathering.<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-64732701049513231552019-04-11T18:06:45.281-04:002019-04-11T18:06:45.281-04:00I was crying reading your account of the children&...I was crying reading your account of the children's home. The world could always use more folks like that.<br />We visited the Cannon Factory when I was a kid. My older sister lived at Ft. Bragg, NC and we were blessed to visit and mom purchased towels at Cannon. No one makes towels like that anymore.<br />I always love the cars you share. Our oldest daughter Noelle works for Hagerty Ins. Co. Every month they bring a new collector car and park it in the main lobby. The stories are always so fascinating. Come next Monday, our son-in-law Zach will start working there too.<br />It has been a while but I love stopping by. Thanks for sharing. HUGS to you and your lovely wife. xo<br /><br /><br /> <br /> <br /><br /><br />My Tata's Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03316406149678154358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-48145811353878766242019-04-11T15:56:00.231-04:002019-04-11T15:56:00.231-04:00Wow.
