I am a person that would never take advantage of another person. There are a lot of things I dont know or like to do but trying to be good to people is something, I do like to do,I am not one that takes praise very well, it embarrasses me, when I sent the auction money to MJ it was not because I thought she needed it,it was from my own gut feeling that it was the right thing to do.I have sold really good on here and my personal feelings was that I should contribute something to her expenses, That is for my own self no one else.I am like most of you I am not rich in money but I am wealthy in so many other ways. If I do or give its from my heart , not to brag, Now the best thing in my life is my strong faith in God. I thought before I did this is Mary Jane going to be angry at me, are others going to be angry, but in the long run I followed my gut.Now I will tell you what happened, my pillow buiness had slowed down and I had begin to think how am I ever going to sell all this high priced fabric. Well about an hour after I put the ck in the mail I got a call from one of the stores I sell to in Co. They ordered 18 40 dollar pillows.Mary Jane is not going to whip me because I love her to much and once again my faith in God is as strong as ever. Miss wilma

Miss Wilma! You are the sweetest ever! I sleep with one of your feather pillows every night, and Nora currently sleeps with the other (the little thief!) and when I get up in the morning, my husband still sleeps and sure enough- if I go in to the bedroom later- what pillow has he stolen? Mine. Or I should say- yours! LOL This fall we are going to have to buy a few more from you! *hugs*

you know something Miss Wilma..it seems to me that someone upstairs is looking out for you. there is a saying that "what goes around comes around"..and that goes too for the good deeds one does in life. it is a reaping and sowing principle. you sow good you reap good. no one here should have a problem with what you wanted to do and how you did it..that is between you and your heart and MaryJane..me personally I thought that was a very sweet and loving thing you would do for a friend.Would that the world had more sweethearts like you and others here. Love you and the gals here Miss Wilma.

You know its a big world out there and if I could have a wish it would be to help some one else, I truly have been blessed, when I see young people struggling to live I think from my own hard ships I could teach you so much but you know the young probably wouldnt listen to this old woman

Wilma - you have a heart of gold and full of love. Now I'm one of those youngin's and don't mind listening to you. :) I always believed that something happens for a reason and the good Lord will provide you love and happiness if you fill it in someone else's life. Those with negativity in their lives will only get whats coming for them.
Alee - Nora looks so peaceful on the pillow. :) I just want to go "awwww!" Too sweet!

Jess- she honestly hates sleeping without a pillow. Some mornings I go in and she is just laying there hugging the pillow. And she is in that dare-devil stage where she likes to just throw herself onto the pillow. It's so cute!

Miss Wilma, I wasn't on the computer last night (I stayed outside until I HAD to come in--too dark) but I just read your feelings this morning when I got to the office... I adore you and anyone who knows you, knows also that you are the most selfless, humbled, caring and giving person on this planet. Not a bad bone in your body, and truly, the best person I know, besides my momma.
Mary Jane won't be angry, and she won't be embarrassed....people make donations all the time to keep the things they love and support going--KET, NPR, Humane Societies--shoot, I donated to Seed Savers!

How could anyone be offended or angry at such a gift from the heart, Miss Wilma? A charitable act is a loving act, and MaryJane knows that.

Miss Wilma, You just keep following the Lord and your heart. He never directs us down the wrong path. I for one am grateful for the loving things done by these farmgirls. Would that our world had more of this type of thing going on. hugs, Denise

Girls lets just make a creed to spend the rest of our like thinking of others and not so much for our selves I am thinking of me here, I get so wound up in doing things that I dont take enough time to visit my friends, to let them know how much I think of them.I guess you think I am silly because I am always coming off with something silly , but really I am down deep a very serious person. It gives me pleasure to make some one laugh. When I am laughing I dont thinl how my bones ache or so much work I cant get done. Karen it is so good to hear from you I have heard such good things about you, I gotta get to work have a good day girls and dont get into to much trouble, Love you all

I'm chiming in with the rest of the girls on this Miss Wilma, you're a treasure. My ears are open and I'll listen to anything you want to share with us. And as far as MaryJane goes or anyone else that is lucky to be the recipient of an act of loving kindness...these things have a tendancy to come around full circle. What a wonderful testament of tything you've created! Much Love, Linder

Miss Wilma - You are such a blessing. You remind me so much of the wonderful farm women God blessed me with when I was young. Now he has blessed me again by allowing me to read your words. Thank you!
