Ah. A very nice story. Grandma might be stern but she does know what it feels like to be stood up. And it turned out well for her. She should share her own story with Ellie. Grandma is right. There will be someone else for her, someone better. Well written.

Love older folks who have been through it all. Usually know just what to say. Gretchen

The type of story I like, I'm glad I'm a fan of yours Gretchen, this is such a nice, Grandma was right, as one door closes, if we're in God, He'll make sure the right door will open. Perhaps Ben Welsh will be her beau, beautifully written, blessings Roy

What a lovely, sad story. I am so glad God brought the right one along for me. As I have said many times before, it was a miracle how me and my sweetheart met. Still together after all these years.

What a sweet, wonderful story. Margaret knew from experience. She should tell her granddaughter about it. Hopefully, we'll hear about Ellie finding her Ben soon.

Good advice from grandma and she knows it's true.
She knows because it happened to her long ago. Yes
it is true. That saying, when God closes one door,
another one opens. Everything works for the good.
Lovely story, Gretchen Nancy:)

Another neat story! I love the wholesomeness of your characters and stories. And I hope you don't mind my saying, good old fashioned story telling. I mean it as a compliment.
