Good for you. It seems like you and your husband had a balancing effect on each other. Closely knit and loving too from what I gather. I had to have lots of ministry because I saw way too much stuff as a very young child. The Lord has been very good to heal me.
Sending you my best today as always, and best wishes for the upcoming contest.

Thanks for the review, Sally. I'm sorry you weren't allowed to be an innocent child. Thats sometimes leaves scars, but it seems you life truned out well. Yes my husband and I were perfect for each other. We had 61 wonderful years together.

Comment from w.j.debi
It sounds like you were a determined young lady from the get go. Few people challenge themselves, especially about things they fear. You must be a strong woman.
Could just be me, but I felt the word "of" was missing from this phrase
"and most (of) my fears and tendencies to be overly sensitive were behind me.

Thank you so much for an excellent review. It wasn't just you. I did leave out the word of. Thanks for pointing that out. I corrected it.
I have been told I'm a strong woman. I might have taken it too far.

This was quite a tale. I can't imagine someone facing their fears head on the way you did. I am impressed, but also I feel bad that you felt you had to do those things. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Thank you Jess. I guess I was a weird kid. I doubt if most kids worried about the things I did. Growing up around nothing but adults made me feel our of place. If I'd had a sister or kid next door, I might have not been so inclinded to try to fix myself. LOL
