I am a great-grandmother now and I hear the words you have written from many of my life long friendships. I, and they, have been in situations with family members that place more value on gifts (as one said recently, “she likes me as long as I am gifting”) than the comfort and everlasting gifts of love that keep on giving. Perhaps, we are living in a world of too much of everything. Could this be one of the reasons many have lost the true values in this life? In my eighties, I can still smell and feel the loving touch of my grandmother’s worn and wrinkled hands. Her hands now mirror the ones I see when I look down. Her gifts couldn’t be bought in a store or online! Hers were the ones that are imbedded in the woman I am today. Karen, you are a treasure, keep writing! Jo Keller

I finished reading your 10-year anniversary edition of Postcards. Fantastic as usual. Love the whole magazine, but I really get a hoot out of the “Out of the Mouths of Babes.” I am always reminded of a couple of things my kids have said in their younger days.
