I will esteem His death by the life I lead. How blessed I am that He chose to die a brutal, excruciating death and separation from the Father, so that I don't have to. Thank you, Jesus.
This weekend has been wonderful and much needed. Time with my sister (and surrogate baby sister) on her birthday was just what I needed to refresh and rejuvenate. Below are some weekend shots.
I just received word from Little that my Louisiana grandfather (not my blood relative, but he and his entire family have been closer to us than most actual family members and basically raised my mom and her two sisters after their parents died when they were teenagers) is in the hospital. He has been having severe problems swallowing and thus has been choking often. Apparently today he had a particularly bad episode and was admitted to the hospital for tests. He has been rapidly declining over the past year or so and is so weak and feeble. Papa has lived an incredibly full and blessed life and has served such a huge role in our lives as a kind, gentle, constant presence. Maybe he'll be fine; maybe the Lord is ready to bring him home. Either way, please pray for the doctors, Papa's wife Mimi and our family.
