Rose closed her eyes with relief. “That’s wonderful news.” “Isn’t it? I can’t think of a better Christmas present.” Neither could she. “Thanks for letting me know, Judy. I’ll call Sue and tell her how relieved I am.” “There is much to be thankful for. Have a great day, Rose, and take care.” Rose hung up and immediately dialed Sue’s number. “I just heard the good news. Judy called.” Sue’s voice rang with relief. “I’m praising the Lord. I can’t tell you the agony I went through. I thought of everything imaginable.” “It must have been a difficult few days.” She paused. Apologizing didn’t get any easier, no matter how long you procrastinated. “Sue, I’ve been intending to call and check on you, but somehow I never got around to it. I’m so sorry I wasn’t there to help you through the awful time.” Silence followed, enough to let Rose know Sue had noticed her absence. “That’s all right, Rose. I know how busy you are.” “I prayed for you.”
