there and back again

Well, we went on our trip to California. We got to spend good quality time with family, and had a meaningful memorial at David's gravesite.
We each put a white rose in the container for the flowers and said something meaningful to David or a memory of him. We handed Mercy a white rose too, and after Brian spoke and put the rose in, it was almost like she knew it was her turn. She needed a little bit of help, but she seemed to want to be a part.
David loved Mercy so much. He was happy to be an uncle. He was pretty amazed at the technology of our 3-D ultrasound too. We made him a copy of a 3-D video because at the time we didn't know how much time we had with him.
Anyways, it was good time with extended family, but we didn't get alot of time for just us 3. So it wasn't really a vacation for us.
But I am glad to be home, and back in the swing of things.

Today was a full day with church in the morning, family in the afternoon, property olympics in the later afternoon, church in the evening, then family time saying goodbye to Brian's parents after church. A full day, a good day & a memorable one at that.

Last week at church, my dad prayed for Zonnie & she was healed. God healed her of some problems with her nose. So she shared that tonight. I have been stepping out & playing some praise & worship on the keyboard. All I really know are chords, so that is something I know can be worked on. Then after I shared, we all celebrated one friend's decision to commit her life to Christ. She is such a sweetheart and has been close to making this commitment for a little while. We are happy for her new life and the different changes that are taking place in her life.

Well, I gotta go - I am worn out, can hardly keep my eyes open...............gdnt!
