Hi Gro, what a beautiful daughter and beautiful mother! Seeing your photos made it feel
like yesterday. I so enjoyed your presence and your heart and your bubbling
personality. I'm fortunate to have such a wonderful sister. I have been trying to master
Thessalonians. There is so much in it about the family, and praying for them and loving
them. I know can see you in the book, in my life and at the gathering. I hope to talk
to you soon again. Bless you big Gro...Dave
Thanks for making the connections. I was working in food services when I was at HQ. I need to see some older pictures of you girls from back then. I remember the auburn hair!

No, I'm not on skye but I am a big Facebook gal. Are you on Facebook? If not, it's easy and fun. Tell me more about skye - I may be interested.
Love ya,

It's good to have you as a friend!! :-) It's great to know that you are enjoying yourself and staying curious and alert - that's a big deal, I reckon. And what a joy to have such a lovely daughter to raise - you have been blessed, indeed.
Have you and your daughter travelled to Australia yet? (nudge, nudge) It's a great trip to make - plenty of time to read on the plane and lots of warm sunshine when you arrive. I can meet you at the airport (Brisbane or Gold Coast?)
Lots of love and Big Hugs,
Sarah
