Back when Stephen was still in high school I taught myself how to make these friendship bracelets. I made several for myself and by request I made one for Stephen. Well, he wore it to school and some of his friends saw it. They asked for some, so Stephen brought me home their orders and we decided to charge a quarter each. When all was said and done I had made twenty bucks. Anyhow, not to long ago I wore one to our home school co-op classes and my friend Jackie saw it. She asked for one and on receiving it asked if I could show her how to make them. I did. She then showed our other friend Ali who showed her little sister Grace who made one for my friend and her older brother David who is in the marines. Apparently David wore it and when he was home over Christmas he asked if Ali and Grace would make him a hundred so he could take them back with him for the guys. Now a bunch of people wear them as a reminder to pray for David and the guys who are going to war. Isn't it amazing how something so small can go such a long way.If anyone wants one let me know and I'll give you one free of charge, just remember to pray for our troops.
