"I testify that that love is made sacred through sacrifice - the sacrifice of a teacher and even more through the ultimate and eternal sacrifice of the Son of God. I bear witness that He lives! I love Him and desire to put away selfish desires in order to love and minister as He does."
I left Darrel and Trina's this morning before 9 a.m. James stayed for the walk-thru at the new house with Trina and Darrel. I stopped on the way out of town at Walmart to get a soccer ball for Johnny Wilhelm. Today is his 7th birthday.
When I was finished shopping I hit the 202 loop north to the 87 and headed for Payson.
I zipped right through Payson and headed for Heber where I stopped at the Circle K for a drink and to check my tires. Everything seemed to be okay so I headed for Show Low.
I stopped at Safeway for DP10 and some fresh strawberries. My next stop was the Vernon post office. It was 34 degrees in Vernon but there was no wind and plenty of sunshine so it felt quite good.
My next stop was the Wilhelm home to deliver Johnny's soccer ball. One of the dogs jumped on me and got mud on my pants, the ball, and the envelope to the birthday card. Curtis took the ball because Johnny wasn't home.
If felt good to be back home even though I was only gone 24 hours. As soon as I walked in the house my phone rang. It was Johnny in his cute little "grownup" voice thanking me for the soccer ball.
The only not great thing about being home is all of the mud that I had to go through to get her. Poor Lexy is a mess.
James called me an hour or so after I got home and said he was on his way home.
We spent a relaxing evening at home together watching the new Hallmark movies, "Love Under the Rainbow."
We both liked this cheesy Hallmark movie.
Just before going to be James checked his phone and he had a text from Dawn about his mother. Lois went in this morning for a procedure on her heart. It was supposed to be an outpatient procedure but her blood pressure went very low and so did her heart rate. We were both quite stressed as we went to bed and offered a prayer for Lois. We both felt guilty. I had been telling James he needed to call his mom for the past week. When he didn't do it, I felt prompted to call, but I never did. Thank goodness she is going to be all right and we have another chance.
