You Never Know...

You never know who is reading what on the great big interweb...
I had an experience this sunday about it, which really caught me off guard 'cause I thought only my two sister's were reading this blog...

When I was younger, pre-marriage days, I was dating this guy who lived in a group house, one of the other guys who lived in the house, we'll call him Todd, well I came to really respect him and I'd like to say we were friends. Well, these days were both married, he has some adorable children and his wife is amazing. Anyways, Todd came up to me on Sunday and told me that his wife had shown him one of my posts. And how it had made him feel bad. And how he wanted to do more for C from now on.
I really had no idea what to say or do or anythign because I was in shocked!
I had never, ever, ever wanted to make anyone feel bad in themselves or for other people from my blog, especially this one, and I also couldn't for the life of me think of what I had written that would have had that affect on him, and I also had no idea anyone knew about this blog!
I seriously have a great deal of respect for Todd and for him to say these things to me was head spinning.
So when I got home I looked up my little blog and tried to find the post he read. I think it was this one.

But what I want Todd to understand is that he has helped our family... He came to C's 21st Birthday party and he also gave my Dad a blessing the night of his accident. Those 2 things alone have had a massive positive impact on our family. And it's little things like that, that don't seem big to other people, that make the most difference. And just him coming up to me on Sunday and talking to me about it just overwhelmed me with love. It just touched me that people out there do care about C, they really do.
You see, C has spent nearly his whole life in the same ward and has never really ventured beyond it untill we got together, so many people know his family, but not him.

But if Todd does want to hang out with C, I will definately not say no, I think he would be a huge positive influence on C, and they are alot more simmillar than they realize... Oh and C needs fishing tips, he's never caught one.
