Smile lookie what a friend did for me

a lady i met at the miniature horse forum did the nicest thing for me. she took these two pictures, two of my favorites, enlarged them and had them custom framed. i got them in the mail yesterday. she included a card that i was instructed to read first. it said she wasn't sure this would make me happy or sad but the majority of the people she asked said she should go for it. i'm so glad she did! i blubbered like an idiot before i even SAW the pictures but then they brought back so many happy memories. the one of us in the cart was taken only weeks before gary died.

wasn't that just the nicest thing?

Nina, you have a beautiful friend, hang on to her. What a sweet, wonderful thing to do -- she obviously loves you (and Gary) very much.
