It really is a beautiful post. <br />I usually just read your stories, but today felt that it was so touching that I felt that I needed to comment. Well done Mel, and keep your fabulous stories coming.<br />Love Kate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737456571760067510.post-34621315237849733622011-11-04T11:38:33.579+11:002011-11-04T11:38:33.579+11:00What a beautiful post.

I can remember kids not wanting to play with me. One day I was leaving school and there where a couple of girls waiting in the bushes for me. I try not to think about those days. I put them behind me and try not to think about them. <br />I to love lacy clothes. You should show us some of your creations. I would LOVE to see.<br />Hugs<br />donnadonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06110572810616964398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737456571760067510.post-44347859903113087622011-11-04T11:38:20.574+11:002011-11-04T11:38:20.574+11:00Oh no, no problem!

I once led a stray dog up a very busy road with a ribbon from a discarded balloon. As I approached the Veterarian where I planned to take him he took off.The ribbon snapped with his tugging and he ran acrooss the road and I literally stopped 4 lanes of traffic to run after him ! haha...now I can laugh but at the time I wanted to wring his neck for him... All of us suckers in the world not only help others but we also provide great entertainment for others...hahaha<br />and sorry I didn't realise you had asked if I wanted you to post my comment but of course I don't mind a bit. I have published yours but please let me know if you don't want this and I will delete it xoMelaniehttp://frenchblueandpeachypink.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737456571760067510.post-60046573534203950332011-11-04T03:59:43.856+11:002011-11-04T03:59:43.856+11:00Melanie,

I decided to reread your comment on my post, and see if you answered my question about putting your comment up for others to read. I believe I have my answer. I was so surpised when I saw your post and your link to my blog. Thank you for that.<br />Reading your post was almost hard for me at times, but touched me deeply. You made me laugh as well as cry. <br />When you mentioned helping lost dogs I cracked up. We are definitely alike. Last winter a woman came knocking at the door and asked if we had a dog. I told her we actually had two dogs. She said one of them was loose and that she almost hit it in the road, and then it ran up our driveway. I assured her our dogs were right there in the house. She pointed out a little tiny dog bouncing over the snowdrifts in the next-door-neighbor's yard heading to a huge open field. It was so tiny, and we have lots of coyotes and raccoons and predators so I feared for the little dog's life. What I also should mention here is that we just had a record breaking 18 inches of snow the day before, and the temperature had dropped to dangerously cold wind chill levels. I felt the poor little thing would get lost and freeze to death. My husband, son, and I grabbed our coats and boots and went chasing after this little dog, praying it wouldn't get lost in the field. Every step I took I sank into the snow which had drifted up to my thighs in spots, and I was basically stuck. I am 5' 2" tall. After about 200 yards I was completely exhausted and winded and couldn't go any further. I watched as this little tiny pup just pounced merrily on its way over the drifted snow. I guess it weighed so little that the frozen top layer of the drifts supported it's weight. My long-legged son continued the search and left me stuck and panicking in a snow drift. It seriously took my husband to pull me out and calm me down. I felt like I was in quicksand, and then I got an asthma attack followed immediately by a panic attack. He patiently stayed with me and talked me down calmly for the next ten minutes until I reached our shoveled driveway. Not funny at the time but now that I think back . . . . :)<br />Anyhow, thank you so much for sharing. I feel comfortable posting your comment now. God bless you and all of us who walk to the beat of a different drum. I hope we can all learn to appreciate how special we are in our own way. I hope that our experiences might touch a mother's heart and she will share these stories with her children. Perhaps even one of them might become the playground friend of the lonely and defender of the bullied . . .<br />JulieRic Rac and Polka Dotshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15589881110509261778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737456571760067510.post-8653914470758935682011-11-03T15:37:19.136+11:002011-11-03T15:37:19.136+11:00So beautiful!So beautiful!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
