A Basketful of Good Wishes for you.

Hi,

You do not know me, but I have been part of the list. I just wanted to add that I too love the garden and has made me feel closer to God and also a stress reducer. I have a bay window in our kitchen and we sit on a hill and I look out to the sky and see heaven. I am really kind of sentimental right now. Ralph went out on disability in September and I have not handle things real well. We are in the process of having to sale the house. Please keep us in your prayers. Thanks and God Bless! Shirley and Ralph

Shirley and Ralph,

I understand how you would feel very sentimental right now. I imagine

with the diagnoses, diability, and having to move is a lot going on

at one time. I pray that God will be with you in your time of need. I

am sure the Lord will give you another place where you can plant your

flowers and still look up into the heavens.

God Bless,

Belinda
