It started off with a letter printed in the British Weekly from one of their English readers. The British letter went like this: "Dear Sir, 'It seems ministers feel their sermons are very important and spend a great deal of time preparing them. I have been attending a church quite regularly for the past 30 years, and I have probably heard 3,000 of them. To my consternation, I discovered that I cannot remember a single sermon. I wonder if a minister's time might be more profitably spent on something else? "Sincerely...." For weeks a real storm of editorial responses ensued. The uproar finally was ended by this letter: "Dear Sir: "I have been married for 30 years. During that time I have eaten 32,850 meals-mostly of my wife's cooking. Suddenly, I have discovered that I cannot remember the menu of a single meal. And yet, I have received nourishment from every single one of them. I have the distinct impression that without them. I would have starved to death long ago. "Sincerely...." SAME IS TRUE OF MOMS! :-) Jessy

Only YOU could take a picture of a label stuck in your dryer door and turn it into a meaningful, inspirational blog post!! God is using you! :) I don't read lables either! And as a special ed teacher I really try not to read the "label" (the IEP) about the student until I get to know them, and form my own thoughts on the kiddo, they are so much more then the label that is often stuck on them!!!

You put such thought into them. I don't pay attention to labels on clothing, either. Actually, I don't even sort lights and darks when I'm doing laundry. I don't really own anything that I worry about ruining! Jane, P&B Girls Wonderful post! You put such thought into them. I don’t pay attention to labels on clothing, either.
