A Gift for ME

I met this very friendly lady at a Halloween P.T.O. Activity at the kids' school last fall. We both are talkers so we just sat and talked together for a while that evening and that was that. Well, at least that's what I thought. A little while later Danny told me that some lady was knitting me a blanket because I had helped her so much with her divorce. After he explained where I met the lady I knew right away who he was talking about. Well just before Christmas she gave Danny this beautiful knitted afghan to give me. All I had for Danny to give her that morning was a plate of cookies and an invitation to our house for dinner.
Just recently we were finally able to have Cathy over for dinner to give her an official thank you. She is so easy to talk to; she's the type of person you feel as though you've known for a long time. While talking with her we also found out that she lives on a farm (which is a dream of Hanna's) and I told her that Hanna would love to come over and help her work on her farm this summer. We actually want to help her as a whole family for a week this summer. Hanna can't wait!
It was so kind of Cathy to make this beautiful gift for me especially when I felt like I did nothing to deserve it. Oh, but I sure love how warm and cozy that blanket is; in the winter of course!
I will always remember Cathy and her kind heart!
