The grandkids are so special. Spoil her good. The 13 of Dec. I had my 5th great grandson. They have all been boys. I have not be allowed to see him. But they all have a special place in your heart. Not his fault that I can't see him. So happy for you that he is born free. DF

After reading all the response to your question I had to put my 2 cents in.
No I would not go and I would not send a present. I'm going thru the same thing with my grandaught. She was married last Feb. My husband and I were not invited to the wedding. I sent a beautiful clock to her anyway. No thank you note nor that she even got it. Been 2 yrs. since we ask our 1st questions. and we have been shunned since then. Our middle daughter has nothing to do with us. We are not da nor df. She just had a baby Dec. 13th and our daughter has not let us know anything. She had the baby c-section. My youngest daughter keeps us informed and she is a god send. We are 70 yrs. old and it is really hard to loose your family after being very close. Good luck to you what ever you decide. Desertflower

Be careful you don't catch it
by kenpodragon ini have several little nieces and nephews in my life.
in doing so i have watched them grow from being these little babies, to these children that run all over my house when they visit.
they are a lot of fun, but some of them have the most nasty of habits.

WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE FOR THE ORGANIZATION?
by minimus inwe've heard how some are convinced that loyal witnesses would do almost anything if they were told by the organization to do it.
some have even suggested killing if that's what was required.
how far would you have gone for the organization when you were in its clutches?

new point watchtower Sept. 20th
by desertflower inpage 16 under talking about the good samanitan, par.
15 (quote) something else is noteworthy about jesus' reference to the road that went "down from jerusalem to jericho".
according to the story, first a priest and then a levite were also traveling that road-although neither stopped to help the victim (luke 10: 31, 32 ) the priests served at the temple in jerusalem and the levites assisted them.

According to the story, first a priest and then a Levite were also traveling that road-although neither stopped to help the victim (Luke 10: 31, 32 ) the priests served at the temple in Jerusalem and the levites assisted them. Many priests and Levities resided in Jericho when they were not working at the temple, for Jericho was onlly 14 miles from Jerusalem. Hence they undoutedly had occassion to travel that road. Note too that the priest and the Levite were going along the road " from Jerusalem," thus heading away from the temple. So no one could rightly justify the indifference of these men by saying "they avoided the injured man because he appeared to be dead, and touching a corpse would hav emade them temporaily unfit to serve at the temple. ( Lev 21:1 Num 19:11 ,16) Is it not clear thJeat sus' illustration reflected things were familiar to his listeners?
After reading this I thought I had not heard this before. Have any of you got some thought about this???
