grateful

Thanks...to you who...

Took care of me on orchestra tour. Who asked me how I was doing--even if I just grunted or scowled. Who were compassionate. Who hugged me and didn't care that I was sick. Who bent over to listen to what I had to say because it hurt to talk. Who rubbed my back. Who sang me lullabies at night. Who walked around with me in Brussels (even though I wasn't very much fun), dropped me off at the library, and then came back for me when it closed. Who gave me food. Who walked all around Sneek looking for soup. Who sat with me when I didn't talk. Who piled coats on top of me on the bus when I had a fever. Who laid down on the floor to talk to me when I had said fever. Who played my orchestra part when I dropped out.
Who lent me Euros. Who told me stories of violin and cello teachers on the bus. Who called me yesterday and said "don't even think about coming to work tonight!" Who missed two classes to take me to the doctor.

I feel so blessed to have such wonderful friends. Thank you! I am so appreciative.


And the King will answer and say to them, "Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it
to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me." Matthew 25:40

Well I must say I appreciate being thanked so extensively, and although I won't write a blog to say it; You're welcome... although for some reason I am having a hard time remembering doing some of the things you mentioned.

:) Dear Bekah,

You have the most incredible gift of making people smile all the time - even when you aren't, or can't.
Thank you!
I wish you the greenest of days!
