Helmsman

I have been away from the helm here for a bit. We had a family emergency and had to travel out of town for several days. My FIL was quite ill and to make a long story short, ended up with a couple of stents around his heart.

All is well now, and they are on their way back home as I type this.

Things I am grateful for today:

-God and his miracles.

-My FIL….the man is the sweetest, most gracious man and I am so happy we will have him with us for a longer time frame than what was supposed on Wednesday.

-My MIL, who loves her husband and is a most awesome example of a wife.

-My BIL and SIL who made Bill and I laugh like we have not in a very long, long time.

-My friends who took my children in and cared for them so we could go and tend to my FIL.

-Life. Because it is a short ride, and we really need to spend more time appreciating it.
