A while back, you and another FReeper, I think Freedom'sWorthIt, told me this. I honestly didn't know I had this gift and didn't respond because I was so touched when you pointed it out that I didn't know what to say. I know that may sound strange, but it's true. Reflecting on it, I believe it is born out of having received so little encouragement myself when I was little, and then being a mom, and knowing how much it means to hear a good word to balance all the guidance and correction kids need, so I worked harder at observing where good things pop up. But it's clear that the good Lord has put His blessing on the words. Reminds me of Jacob's son, Naphtali: "He gives beautiful words." Thank you for pointing this out. Bless you!
