I sat down to write the last blog. I wrote about the Davidson's birthday party. I wrote about how great it was. I told you that we needed two-thousand five-hundred dollars. At the Davidson's party there were no gifts given. Instead, guests wrote cards and gave checks and cash to Beautiful Response. Twenty dollars here, a hundred there.
I sat down to write the last blog on the Saturday after the party and I asked you for two-thousand five-hundred dollars.
Across the table, David, Sonja's brother, sat down with a stack of cards and checks and a calculator. We both sat down.
I finished the blog, clicked publish, and the blog was sent out. I stood up. David took the checks in two hands and set them on the table to straighten them out.
David-"You guys got twenty-five hundred dollars."
Me-"Wait, you mean two-thousand five-hundred dollars?"
David-"Yep"
Me-"Exactly that much?"
David-"I'm going to count it again."
David-"Two-thousand five-hundred dollars. Exactly"
I was sending out a prayer. Three chairs away from me, that prayer was being answered. Exactly.
