Today I was standing in line at Michaels craft store. I was standing behind this lady with two young girls. Both girls had their hair done beautifully in braids. The lady behind me comment to this lady of how beautiful the hair was done on each girl. Both girls were so pretty and very polite. The lady with the two girls replied back that she was a hair dresser and her daughters also could do this. I assumed these two girls were her Grand daughters, although she really looked pretty young to be a gramma.
None the less the young girls spoke to myself and the lady behind me telling us of their crafts they did and they were going to start to knit. The older of the two girls told us, that this lady with them, was teaching them. She was a foster mom. I thought that was the greatest and sweetest thing I had heard in a really long time, but what made my eyes almost tear was the girls proceeded to tell us that this lady had a total of 44 foster kids. I am assuming they that was how many had gone through this lady's home.
Imagine to have made a impact 44 young lives and she still seemed so energetic, caring and was so thrilled, happy and could not wait to teach these young girls the skill of knitting.
She must have patience and a heart as big as the world.
Just when I thought everything was just blah Christmas was so commercialized, I get to meet someone who truly made my day. Thank you such much to who ever you were, you have been spotted and I wish you and your family all the best in the world and a very Merry Christmas to you and your family and truly hope all your hopes & dreams come true.
