Eldina/ friend


Eldina is a dear sweet lady who is 84 yrs. old and lives four doors down from me. She goes to the Seventh Day Adventist Church and is very faithful. The only station she watches on her tv is her church channel. I teased her one day and said she better be careful or they will beam her up. she laughted! Not sure how we came to meet, but think she was moving into her home when I stopped and chatted with her & her husband a few mins . He is now gone. She says he is resting. Well today she will call me sometimes and ask if I want to go walk with her. Often if time permits, I will go. She often calls and when hanging up will always say "I love you." Although we do not always agree on certain things as far as the gospel goes, I tell her thats ok, the Lord loves all his children just as we love all our children and we can be sure he will work everything out. I told her Jesus has the same love a parent has for their children, Unconditional Love! She gave me this warm smile. When her daughter calls and ask if I will keep watch over her mom while she is away on one of her trips, I say sure. She said she gives her a choice of a couple people and she always says she wants Dottie. so Dottie it is! I try to show her a good time by getting her out of the house now and then, I think she has a pretty good time! will try to add picture of her later.

  1. She is a doll. I think it's really special that she says "I love you."
