Dear family,
The
latest person I have enjoyed watching learn to drive is four years old. She was backing out of spaces, possibly
running snakes over and enjoying the good life.
It’s funny to see a youngster in a toy car. There are many similar concepts to learn; what
way does the vehicle move when backing up and turning the wheel, not running
grandma over, driving while turned backwards.
(Well, maybe not that last one.)
I enjoy my adopted family and was so glad when they decided we don’t
really need candles to be on the cake for blowing out. Candles on cake was a pretty yucky tradition
if you have Covid in your thought processes.
Either
way I am so glad for my church family.
You are my friends and I am glad to enjoy your company while Bobby takes
yet another trip. He was home for a
couple days. There was enough time for
water balloon volleyball. There is more
skill than you would ever guess for throwing a water balloon out of a beach
towel. It’s a skill that we probably
won’t have to use . . . ever. . . so no one practices during the year. I enjoy watching and the kids have fun every
time. We have a great group of lovely
people. Each one is a blessing to see when
we do have youth group.
Seth
continues to do beautiful landscaping and I appreciate his efforts so
much. Our yard is manageable this year,
yeah!! Since Seth has done so much work
I haven’t cried once because the yard was overwhelming. Seth even swept our sidewalk. It’s so beautiful! I then had time to take my wheel barrel and
clean up two or three other blocks on Wallace that were trashy. I bicycle every day and want to live in a
clean neighborhood. During that task I
saw a lovely lady from church and had several amazing interactions with
neighbors. I felt so loved, blessed and
happy to live exactly where I live.
Seth’s efforts made my Saturday morning amazing.
Adriel
has embarked on a journey of being a camp counselor for a couple of weeks. Please pray with me for her to have good
health, good times and energy for the tasks she has to do. I don’t know what hours she is there but I am
guessing she is tired. She did have an
amazing week last week and has a new appreciation for caregiving and camp in
general.
Bobby
came home early from his 100 mile hike for an entirely different reason than
past hikes. No tent malfunctions, fire,
or extreme mosquitoes. This time they
simply hiked faster than expected. How fun.
Bobby was home just in time to help Seth spread gravel. He was so excited about that. 😉.
May
you enjoy God’s gifts, know how loved you are and delight in the sun, rain,
stars and beauty that we are surrounded with.
Love and hugs, Cristy
