Do you know what a special young lady you must have been for a teacher who was so lost in her own depression and desperation to make a point of seeking you out to say those important words to you? You touched her as much as she touched you. You have always, obviously, been a wonderful person. I'm glad that you had each other, if only for a brief moment in time.

We need to find a cabin in the snowy mountains together.....to just relax and watch the giant snow flakes fall carelessly and smoothly to the ground while we sit by a fire with our cups of hot cocoa.....aaahhh....heaven on earth.

Thanks for the shout-out, too.

Jeannette, that teacher was very sweet, caring, and beautiful--inside and out. Many people had a hard time understanding why such a wonderful person who looked as if she had everything going for her could do such a sad thing. I think that back then there were not as many options for depression and/or not that much was known about it. I often wonder how her children turned out.

Now about that cabin~~that sounds wonderful, but you KNOW we have to have some freshly baked cookies to go with that cocoa!!

It was so nice reading about you. I, too, would love to see a picture!! When I see your name, the impression that comes across is "caring and strong" because that is what I always see in you. Thank you for being so supportive and thank you for being you! It was great reading about you, but we want more! Greedy, I know! You are definitely a great Mommysaver friend. Thanx for the mention....you would do great at the Oscars! I hope you have a wonderful week!
