From Vada (Dwinelle) Krumwiede
In reading today's Salina Journal,
they had letters from readers on what they are thankful for. I read them all
and one short one thanked God's love letter and the Bible. It is the best
instruction manual we have. The one I read and was prompted to send on to you
and the Paradise Blog is from a woman being thankful for the adoption of their
son. She formerly lived in Paradise and now
lives in Russell. It was from Ruth Bartlett. She is thankful for the
nine-month old boy they loved from first sight and the wonderful grandchildren
he gave them.
God's blessings to each and every
one of you for Thanksgiving and for the holidays and years to
come.

I received the actual write-up from the Salina Journal from another Paradise Blog supporter.
A Bounty of Gratitude
What are you thankful for? As the Thanksgiving holiday approaches, the Journal asked readers to reflect on what they are thankful for in their lives. Whether it’s the blessing of family or friends, a second chance at life or love, or gratefulness for the ordinary freedoms we sometimes take for granted, each had a personal reason to show thanks during the season and throughout the year.

Ruth's Thankfulness . . . .
Happy, Happy Times
"There is no doubt that one phone call made me and my husband two of the happiest people on earth. The call was from an adoption agency saying they had a 9-month-old baby boy for adoption, and would we be interested? Needless to say, we dropped everything and drove the 90 miles to see this baby. What a charmer! We loved him at first sight. "Now, some 50
years later, we are still most thankful for the wonderful, thoughtful young man he became, and later for the awesome grandchildren he provided to us. At the time of the adoption, we lived on a ranch at Paradise. Happy, happy times."
