Hi, Everyone -
As we all need cheering up, I thought I HAD to share this story with you....
My cleaning lady, Pilar (a lovely, lovely person) has a little boy of 7 called Vladimir. He has been to the house with her a couple of times and knows Lancey and Serge. When Serge was really ill, Pilar told Vladimir to pray for him. Obviously, she then had to tell him that Serge had died, and he was very sad.
Anyway, today she told me that - yesterday - she was at home, Vladimir was out playing, and he came home with.....a CAT! It was some cat (with collar...it belonged to someone!) that lives on their street, and he said he'd "caught it to give to Madame Amanda because God wanted her cat so now she needs another one." (!!!)
Of course, Pilar took the cat back to where Vladmir had found it and explained that - whilst his intentions were very, very good.....
Boy, when she told me this story I didn't know whether to cry my eyes out or laugh my head off. I ended up doing the latter...and I thought it would give you guys a laugh, too!

Children are wonderful, we would do well to learn from them.

What a loving heart that little Vladimir has! I think Sue put it best...we would all do well to learn from children.

Thanks for sharing the story and the smile!
