Dear Family,
Bobby
had a lovely Birthday party with a small group of friends last Sunday. Monday Bobby
and I enjoyed the fair. I loved the three shows we saw. African dancing, Dog
circus and a really fun acrobatic one that is pictured. Bobby then went on a
trip to visit his dad and spent his actual Birthday, fishing. I am glad Bobby
had happy times.
For
the first time in months, I made a date with a friend and walked for hours
together. It blessed me more than words can say. I am so grateful for people
who are willing to chat without boundaries on time. I sometimes forget how much
I need to invest in friendships. This entire summer I did not get together with
friends (other than work breaks which kept me sane).
Hawaii,
having new floors installed and getting sick pretty much took my whole summer. Being
too busy to breathe is not fun. Making time to rest with friends is the cure, but
I forget. Now my calendar is full of friend dates, and I know it’s good for me,
so, I am glad for that.
Seth
has swept, washed windows and continued gardening. I’m so glad he is so
helpful.
Adriel has been sick. Please pray for her health and wellbeing. I am still feeling overwhelmed with pre-diabetes. I have been researching carb to protein ratios and reading a book my father-in-law gave me. I appreciate your prayers as I investigate this. Usually, I start but then just feel so tired – I have a hard enough time trying to regulate highs and lows of my emotions – expecting me to regulate highs and lows of blood sugar seems a bit much. Yet, I’m wondering . . . what if the two are interconnected. Dun, du, duuuuuun!!! Please continue to pray with me for God’s wisdom, peace and joy. Love and hugs,
Cristy
