This brought a tear to my eye. Such warmth and generosity is so rare, but so wonderful. You and Hubby have earned a place forever in my heart.

Isn't it wonderful to have the opportunity to share with others? Especially since you know what it's like to have been in their shoes. Of course I've found that those who are most generous have very often been ones who at some time in their life have been on the receiving end of things.

So true, back in the mid '80's my house was broken into while the kids and I were out of town. We came back to the backdoor wide open, the frig open and groceries everywhere. I was so upset, that someone stole from my children. If they had knocked at the door while I was home, I would have given them the groceries.
Our landlord heard about this and came over with a trunk full of things he had bought at the store. He didn't get upset when our 45 lb. pitbull puppy left dirty paw prints on his expensive suit pants.
