A True Story About Giving Back: A Feel Good Post Part 2

By

This is a follow up to a blog I poster earlier about our Sunday School class helping a woman in need.
 
I found out today that a couple in our church will be keeping this woman's two year old twins.  This couple have eight year old twins so this should be a good experience for both of the families. The couple will be in close contact with the mother and the other children and fortunately they live close to the family.  The previous child care had not worked out as well as the mother would have liked, but she didn't think she had any other options.

the "grandchildren" in my life came to be in my life through a family in need. They have 5 children, one being a 4 year old set of twins of which one of the twins has Cerebral Palsy. Intially I reached into their lives because they had a need.  They were raising funds for equipment needed that insurance would not cover for their special needs child. But now, two years later, I go to their softball games, take them to the movies, attend all their birthday parties.  They have given me so much more than I give them.

Tammy, that is often true when we reach out to help others.  This particular woman is in great need but I hesitate to share too much about her situation because I want to protect her.

Sally K and David, She has a long way to go before she will be living "happily ever after", but she is moving in the right direction.
