Joani


This is a picture of my girls with our sweet little neighbor Joani. She is one of the kindest people I know. We have an unspoken meeting everyday out by the fence at 2:00. She loves watching the girls play. She's just like a grandma to the girls. She gives them a treat every single day and goes and gets 'groceries' for them (a bag full of toys, cookies, candy, etc.) She's part Native American, is 78 and has cancer. You'd never guess her age by how active she is, she's constantly doing things for everyone. She's an inactive member, but I have a feeling if anything is going to bring her back to the church it's an innocent voice singing the primary songs she loves. I truly treasure our friendship, and just wanted to share this special little friend with you all.
