Elaine's Christmas Dream

Now that story DID bring tears to my eyes, Elaine, I will always remember that tale though in my heart I know I have fed others many times before thinking of myself and so have many on this thread

Yes, Maria ... that's what DG'ers seem to be about. That's what has amazed me so.
Hugs&blessings ... Elaine

Dear Elaine,

By serving you, we are also serving the Lord, and THAT is what makes us feel so good about it. I can tell you are a woman of great Faith. So you must see that God is using you here to accomplish much more than it appears on the surface. When you see His handprint on something, He is glorified. And I , for one, see Him here.

God bless you, and God bless Dave's Gardeners.

Well said Nancy!!

Simple statement:

"You get what you give."

Hey Folks, a BIG Thanks to Everyone!! I see everyone seems to feel as good about this as I do. : )

This is why we can all smile inside when we mention our "friends at DG" and see people's eyes roll and laugh when they shake their heads. LOL

I am happy to be a part of this. I am sure I am happier than Elaine.

Thanks to MistyMeadows for the continuation in a new thread as this one is getting slow to load for dial-up

ha, ha....great minds run in the same channel :)

Elaine...I just want you to know that "personal" thank-you's aren't necessary, at least as far as I'm concerned. Don't you know that everyone who has contributed to this Christmas Dream have already been 'thanked' many times over? Personally, I'm just glad you aren't a person who would deny us this pleasure...there *are* some people "out there" who for their own selfish natures would have refused this gift. And with their refusal would have stolen the gift of pleasure you've *given* to us all.

((((~hugs~))))

Psst...Kelly...thanks for mentioning the 'giving in secret' source.
:-) (My tax lady just doesn't understand why we refuse to take the donation deductions every year. LOL...but *you* do. Let's keep it a secret...ok? ~giggle~)

Sylvia,

LOL, you can still donate if you want. At the top of this thread is darius' address or PayPal e-mail. You can either send her a check to the address or PayPal it to her using that e-mail address.

I didn't know you knew her and we didn't put it in any Forum but this one,,,had I known you knew her I would have mentioned it.

This thread is continued here if you want to look at it. http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/560419/

Thanks so much,,,I just ordered the first part of her gift today, she should be receiving it by the end of the week. She is so excited. If you get a chance, read the threads,,they are both really funny. This is the thread that started it all,,,Elaines post is about 1/2 way down,,,after that is when it started. http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/558599/

Thanks Sylvia, Kelly
