I received one of the sweetest gifts I’ve ever gotten on Friday night.
Stephen went to the clinic with a mother and little one about 7pm. My little favorite came running up to him when he got back, asking for me with a present in hand. He told her I’d be back in twenty minutes from football.
She came running up with a beautiful little package.
A white box wrapped in shiny gift wrap with rubber bands holding it all together. And inside, a really beautiful necklace; a beautiful, long strand of red beads.
I’m not even sure how to respond now as I write this days later. It’s such a beautiful, real gift. They bring us flowers and little treasures all the time: treasures I love; flowers I put in little cups on the table. But this is something of real value to her. Even the paper it was wrapped in is a treasure in their little homes.
I can’t really tell you the value this necklace holds.
It’s just one of the sweetest gifts I have ever received.

Oh Kelli This story melts my heart. What a gift of herself. She doesn’t have much but she wanted you to have that beautiful necklace. Like the story about the lady in the bible who gave all she had.
