Laura

Laura's my neighbor.

She's one of the sweetest people I've ever met!

When Laura cooks "too much" food, she'll call me up and say something along the lines of: "I see your light is on. I cooked too much food again. Meet me outside with a tupperware container so I can give you some!"

Some means at least 3 meals worth.

Laura called me Friday night because she cooked too much. But, I wasn't home (she even commented on how she thought my light wasn't on, but she thought she'd call anyways).

So, Saturday night, Laura called again and said that even though I wasn't home, she dished out some of her food from the previous night and saved it for me!

Last night, Laura called me, commented on how my light wasn't on (I was at worship services), and told me to give her a call when I got home because she had something for me.

When I got home, I was met at my door by Laura. She had 2 gifts for me - one for Christmas and one for graduation. We exchanged tupperware for 2 gifts (I got the better end of the deal, if you ask me).

Tonight, I got a knock on my door. I opened it to see Laura's smiling face. She gave me a big hug and explained my gifts to me.

My "dream" magnet was to remind me to always dream big and remember that no goal/dream is unattainable. She also told me that she got me clear crystal heart earrings are because I have such a pure heart. She went on to say how much she enjoys having me back here (we live in the back part of the building) as a neighbor...that I've been "such a breath of fresh air."

People like Laura make me SO glad that I moved not only to my own apartment and to this complex, but here to Kentucky. I NEVER would have met her otherwise. She's my source of joy on a bad day. She's one amazing woman, and I am so incredibly blessed to have her in my life!!!
