My daughter and I want to thank each and every one of you for the incredible outpouring of kindness and generosity!! We stood here hugging each other, smiling with tears of relief and joy running down our faces as the postman belted out a hearty, “Ho, Ho, Ho!! Merry August!!” as he struggled to carry in more than one stack of boxes of food for us. We both enjoyed an incredible lunch and know that we’re going to be just fine now, all thanks to you amazing people with such beautiful hearts.

And to the person who sent the gift card, I wanted to let you know that it will go toward kitty food and milk and fresh bread for the remainder of the month. Thank you so very much for that! We were trying to figure out just how to manage that.

And to the person who sent the things that weren’t listed, you picked amazing stuff for us! (I’m nibbling some nuts as I write this).

If any of you would like a holiday card, or maybe a birthday card, or you have a special day of remembrance or celebration that you might like a card, please PM me with your mailing information so I can send you something. It’s not much as a personal thank you, but I’d love to do this for you as a tiny, but heartfelt, thank you. Once again, we thank each and every one of you for your generosity and kindness. May you be blessed in return many times over.
