You never know what is going to strike home with you and make an impact.
I was volunteering at the library after work yesterday. New self-checks have been installed and having someone nearby to answer questions or troubleshoot can be very useful during this time. Feedback is also being solicited to see what we can do to make things easier. Comments are written on paper balloons and then posted. Everyone who gives a comment gets a refrigerator magnet.
I had a little girl named Lydia come up to me with a balloon that she had colored for me to put on my refrigerator. It took every bit of strength that I could summon up not to lose it in front of this sweet little girl. My Sarah died at the at the age of 29, three weeks before her 30th birthday, and I still have some of her refrigerator art posted!
Thank you Lydia for adding to my collection.

Oh you\'re so right...you just never know what an impact that something will have on you and the impact that you\'ve made on someone else\'s life. Such a sweet story...I love that Lydia has contributed another piece of art to the cherished pieces you have from Sarah. Hugs to you, Valerie

An earthly angel is what I call them... seems as if Sarah and \"others\" may have known just what you needed. I\'m sure it will be cherished! :) Thank you for sharing such a delightful happening. Love to you. Joanie

Do you ever feel that Sarah was reminding you she\'s still around through this incident? I like to think sometimes my sister is in control for a moment and letting me know she\'s with us.
