Dear Family,

 

               I am so glad for cozy, snug feelings.  Pets, people and blankets are the best.  I enjoy working hard and then being cozy with Bobby and Skyra (our cat).  I want to say life doesn’t get any better than that.  I like the having and holding we share. 

               Bobby did cook chip beef and toast.  I am glad he and Seth like it.  I was able to make enchiladas and salads.  Yum!  Life is filled with amazing food and we don’t have to hunt or grow it.  What a wonderful concept.  I enjoy the barter system.  I don’t like gardening and might starve if my life depended on what I planted. 

               Tuesday night Middle School group was different because five minutes before start time, no one had come yet.  It felt empty.  God pre-ordained this so that Bobby would find the spider before anyone else did.  It was huge and he had the vacuum cleaner ready when the crowd started arriving.  The spider was gone before many knew it existed.  That could have been a really big deal.

               Prayer time was fun with someone having such bad handwriting that it gave the reader pause, a giggle and need for affirmation.  It is pretty funny how an extra space where it doesn’t belong changes everything.

               Wednesday night High School group was delightful.  I enjoyed the singing very much.  One song says, “Your grace is enough, I’m covered in your blood.”  Bobby sang, “I’m covered in your love.”  A student noticed the difference and brought it up.  Bobby was like, “Did I, well they are both the same.”  This made me comment, “Noooo, if you were covered in my blood it would look really bad.”  We did talk about the songs with blood running in Emanuel’s veins, ‘Washed in the blood’ and other such songs.  It’s an interesting concept. 

                How wonderful that Bobby cooked yummy stir fry on Thursday.  I enjoyed coming home to a warm meal after a full day of work.  I definitely feel blessed to have Bobby in my life.

               Friday Bobby began the work of making Tamales.  He made the meat in preparation for Saturdays work of making the rest.  After he was done making them he shared with some friends.  How fun that he could bless people we know with his yummy cooking 😊.

               Seth says, “I love you” on the way to school or work.  He blesses us with his sweet constant steady presence.  Seth is a joy to have around. 

               Adriel usually answers the phone and I am glad she continues to strive for her best life.  She works hard and plays hard.  Reminds me of Bobby.

               May you find peace in the cuddles you have.  May you find joy in your work and God’s love in your interactions.  Hugs,
