*~*~*~* Sign of Love *~*~*~* At times when you feel that your little world and the big world are getting out of control, when what was true yesterday is falling apart, strong family bond and friends are the source which makes us regain new strength for the challenges awaiting us. Last Saturday around noon the door bell rang, and I was wondering who could that be. When I opened the door, I saw a big package on the doormat and the postal car at the end of the driveway just leaving. What a surprise, a package from my . Although we are in contact daily, she had kept it a secret. It took 5 weeks across the pond to its destination. A green tape across the package let me know that the contents had been examined the US Customs and Border Protection. Don't they see what's in there when they screen packages? Wow, a hand-knitted sweater, chocolates, a small booklet titled "Where is God in this World". We had talked about it a year ago when it was first published. The words she had written in the card touched my heart and "put smoke in my eyes". I don''t get emotional easily, at least I rarely show it. Added are some photos of what brought me joy and a picture of our youngest family member helping in the kitchen...... lol He will be 2 years old end of April.

It will be a nice spring day today. The sky is dark blue and it's warm enough to paint some wooden beams across the porch.  Happiness is when what you think, what you say, what you do are in harmony - M. Gandhi

This year you could not yet take a flight to Germany. So you had been waiting and hoping for a miracle to happen! What has happened finally is not a miracle but proof of a strong family bond that exists. The youngest family member looks cute and smart too. Take care. Be safe.

What a beautiful care package full of several wonderful reminders of the love that binds family. I'm sure it will be (or was) a "nice spring day", no matter what the weather! Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

I saw the "surprise" coming from the heart. No birthday, nothing to celebrate...... just sharing loving feelings. That is bonding. Happiness is when what you think, what you say, what you do are in harmony - M. Gandhi

It would have taken a long time to knit that sweater with the fairisle pattern. Thats love. A lovely surprise in the middle of pandemic, and a great little cook, what more could you want.
