Happy Birthday, Kristina!


Today is my middle daughter's birthday! She has the unique honor of having my oldest and youngest grandchild! Again, I am blessed to have my daughter in my life. She is a fun loving, kind and caring person. She has not always had an easy adult life and money has been tight. She is a very frugal person and has adapted to living on a shoestring many times. Even in her financial straits, she still finds the heart to share and give to others. I have always been impressed by that. One incident in particular really exemplifies that. Even though money was VERY tight with her, after only living in her home for less than a month, her older neighbor's wife went into the hospital. She was having us over for birthday dinner that night. She made an extra casserole to take to the neighbor because his wife was not there to look after him. Kristina gives out from her heart. I am blessed to have her as my daughter and mother to my grandchildren!
