Some reason for giving thanks...
« on: April 17, 2013, 09:03:47 PM »
Our daughter Kelsey moved back to the Seattle area about a year ago, which was appreciated then. We weren't so thankful for her boyfriend/fiancee, but he was the one that convinced her to move back. From Boston. Where she almost always watched the finish of the Boston Marathon, from just about exactly where the finishline bomb was detonated. I'm sorry for the loss of others, but so very happy that our daughter was not there.   D>K Steve

The luck of the draw.  Thankfully she moved back.  Daughters are precious!

I have always believed there is a reason for everything although we might not understand at the time but God does work in mysterious ways... so glad she was not there Steve..... I have two daughters and love both dearly.
