1/4/21

 

Dear Family,

                Fresh beginnings are beautiful.  Potential, excitement, newness – all bring joy and resolve to be our best.  Would you believe several grocery stores ran out of celery and broccoli?  I enjoy shopping for Instacart and seeing the buying trends.  New Year's resolutions change behavior.  I wonder if these new choices will become habits. 

                Adriel’s bed frame broke when she jumped back to sit on it.  Adriel decided to buy her own frame because she wants to keep it when she leaves.  She is growing up.  Yay.

                Adriel has the snowboarding bug.  She enjoys it and has found someone who will drive her.  Bobby is now looking into snowboards.  Oh, what fun.  Both delight in showing bruises so that is the entertainment I have to look forward to.

                Adriel ate with us two times last week.  It was lovely to have her with us and chat about our days.

                The youth group New Years Board Game party was a hit.  We kept distant in the gym as usual.  One mother I talked with said youth group is the only time her son leaves the house.  Bobby said he knows youth group is meeting a felt need.  The kids were talking about how excited they are to finally go to school in person.  Maybe it will really happen!

                Seth said he would go to the youth group party for 10 minutes.  He stayed an hour or two and I saw him enjoying himself immensely. 

                Bobby made yummy Ham and bean soup.  It is a family favorite.  I am so glad he cooks.  Bobby enjoyed visiting with some young adults that returned from college for the holidays.  It was a treat to see them again.  Bobby relishes his time with those he ministered to in the past.  It is fun to see how people turn out.

                May you also enjoy the relationships God has given you.  May you find peace in the stillness and joy in the steps you take.  Much Love,
