We took a birthday
drive east this year. In
the spirit of full disclosure, the day turned into one of those that’s not comprised
mainly of “Kodak Moments” – a phrase which I’m guessing could translate as “fb post-able moments”
in modern vernacular! At any rate, the afternoon proved to be one in which the
demands of life caught up, especially with our exhausted Little People, and we
ended up driving back home (a lot) sooner rather than later.
But I’m thankful
for moments spent as a family last Saturday.
On Friday evening
our college students had organized an informal “snack and fellowship time”
before our chapel hour. I made a last-minute coffee cake, and we surprised JM
by singing to him. (The “light red” balloons, I must clarify, were left over
from a church function.)
“¡Qué los cumplas
feliz!”
DJ took a cake to
school yesterday. Initially, he was rather unsure about the idea – but ended up having a
great time!
“¡Feliz Cumple!”
And so life – with
all the current end-of-semester demands and challenges – rolls along! We feel
keenly our need for grace! And we are thankful for our gracious, loving Shepherd!
