A Heart that Listens

"To be kind is more important than to be right. 
Many times what people need is not a brilliant mind that speaks,
but a special heart that listens."
-F. Scott Fitzgerald.

This past week was a crazy, busy week for my granddaughter,
who is a senior this year. 

Dilly and her best friend, Emma, 
competed in and celebrated their fantastic tennis season.

Nominated for homecoming queen, Dilly 
got to ride in a cool Jeep Willy truck in the parade 
and be part of the half-time events at the football game.

As proud as I am of her accomplishments,
I love this beautiful young lady's kind heart even more.

She bought me a charm not long ago that said, 
"Kind people are my kind of people." 
That is true, and they're Dilly's people too. 
She's one of the kindest people I know.

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other,
 just as in Christ God forgave you. -Ephesians 1:32
