True story:

This past week I went to our closest Home Depot in Cincy looking for slate tile for reflooring our master bath. A lady walks up to me and says, "You thinking of doing this yourself?" I say, "Yep...I'm gonna try it." She says, "I teach classes on just this every other week."

We talk a bit and she gives me the next class date. I say, "I'm coming to one of your classes, but my son's in Iraq, his wife is expecting, and they're letting him come visit her, so I won't be able to make that next class."

She says, "You just come in when you can. I give you a personal class because of your son."

Then she says, "Remember to pray for Matt Maupin."

This Home Depot is right near Batavia....Matt's home.

Great story, xzins. Thanks for sharing it.

Sounds like a full few months ahead for your family. (Good timing. Someone up there loves you.) (^:
