Do tell your dear Barbara to keep checking the PO box, since there might be more presents, late due to poor postal service on ether side.

I think about what happened to you and Tony all the time and can't imagine how horrific it must have been, and still be for you both to try and cope with the loss and get back on your feet, especially while you're battling health issues and don't have a permanent sense of home. I'm wishing you so much luck in your search for a new hope and I really hope the right place finds you quickly because I'm sure that will make you both feel like you've set the foundations down to start rebuilding your lives. I'm so glad you were able to have a wonderful festive season due to the generosity of Tony and your friend and all the people they contacted who were able to sent gifts. xxx<br /><br /><a href="http://littlehenrylee.net" rel="nofollow">littlehenrylee.net</a>little henry leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17024952001696475133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-71531320415271006162017-01-15T19:38:13.073-08:002017-01-15T19:38:13.073-08:00Oh dear Jessica, I am so sad to hear about your fi...Oh dear Jessica, I am so sad to hear about your fire.

You are such a great girl with a blessed heart and I admire you so much! I really hope that a nice new house comes your way soon and that your health improves! It's something that you couldn't control, since health is linked to emotional facts. I am sending you all the good possible vibes to your operation and enter the photo challenge if you can, don't be hard on yourself while recovering. Barbara is an amazing girl, for sure, and Tony an amazing husband! I didn't know of all the action, or else I would have liked to send you something too! But well, there's always a birthday or a new Christmas :) Picasso is so sweet, really! How lovely to arrive there and receive so much love in the form of gifts! Blessed everyone and I am so glad you had a nice time! And by the way, it's nice to see you again - you look wonderful, a really beautiful dress!
