04/08/2006: "A Beautiful Saturday"
I really do like these weather teases. In the midst of record-breaking rain, we get a nice Saturday like today. The trees are filling in and the grass is tall. The rain has got the air fresh and clean and baseball has started. I realize the weather is fleeting since they predict rain all next week. Makes me glad to be around.
I haven’t posted in a few days because we had a visitor. Nina Hartwig was student and athlete of mine when I taught and coached at the American International School in Vienna Austria. Those years of European life and travel were a great experience and contain a million great memories. To spend time with Nina, allowed me to bring them back. Now, after coming to the US for college and staying here the past 14 years, she just got a job as a math teacher back at the same school in Vienna, where she spent K through 12th grade. This summer, she is going home and I am excited for her.
Next week, Jeanette’s aunt Karen and family are coming to offer their help. It is hard to get used to accepting help from friends and family. We need it, and I know it allows them to feel they are joining our battle. I am just not used to being in need and the generosity can be overwhelming. To graciously accept the generosity and support of others is just one of the countless lessons that God is teaching us through this battle.
I hope all of you had a beautiful weekend.
PLEASE let us know how we can do our part and help. For you I'd even clean windows. Know that your in many of my relatives' prayer rings each and every day.
