1. I had the most awesome dream 2 nights ago. Usually all I dream about is work. But on this morning I woke up feeling so at peace and so happy. Sometime Btwn 3am and 6am my Dad met me for lunch. We never did eat but we sat at the table and just visited and visited. I can't remember what we talked about or what was said; but it was so wonderful. I usually don't dream about him and unless it is a horrible dream I don't remember my dreams. But that morning I could tell you what he was wearing, how he looked, and about our surroundings. I woke with a smile on my face and peace in my heart.
2. I saw the nicest gesture yesterday at Wal-mart. I was sitting in my car finishing up my list, not really paying attention to anything. But then a young man (maybe 20) was walking out if wal-mart and he stopped in the parking isle and talked to an elderly man in a van. I only heard a few words of the conversation. Then the young man got in his truck. The older man rushed off. In a minute the boy turned his truck on and put it in reverse and then didn't go anywhere. A few minutes later the man in the van appeared behind the truck. The boy backed out and the man pulled into the space. As I watched this strange exchange, I notice that the parking spot was the 1st one in the row (behind the handicapped spots). The second thing I notice is that the van has a handicap tag on the rear view mirror. Then I look around. All handicap spots in all of the rows are taken. This young man saw this man struggling to find a spot to park where he could get in the building safely. And gave that man his spot!
I love to see people being sweet to one another!
3. Please continue to pray for all 3 families involved in the middle school shooting. My friends daughter, Kendal was shot. She went through another surgery yesterday. She is doing well. They r trying to determine nerve damage now.
Nathaniel, the boy that was shot I do not personally know him but was talking with some people last night who say that he has undergone several surgeries and that they even removed part of his skull to allow for brain swelling. He is not responsive to anything at this time. They did however, take him off of the ventilator for 30 minutes yesterday and he did breathe on his own for that time. That is good progress.
The 3rd family is the family of Mason. I can not even imagine what a hard time they are going through. But I am very sure that not one of these famines need our prayer more than the other.
And lastly, please just keep in mind, everyone that was involved. That they will all find peace.
Now, to see what this day has in store for me.
Next time you meet your daddy in your dreams, give him a hug from me. Sure miss that guy! Love you.
