This weekend was a joy! On Friday night, we had a homegroup slumber party (guys at one house, girls at another). The girls had so much fun eating italian food and talking for HOURS!! It was wonderful and exactly what we needed. I feel like we really bonded and will be more open to seeking each others help in times of need. After that, we spent the evening at Michael's parents house for Mother's Day dinner and games. It was a blast! I love getting together with the Presley clan and playing hilarious games....those Presley men can really make you laugh, especially when they are all together!
On Sunday, Ady and I went to church (Michael was ill). I honestly had an enjoyable time being able to fully care for my daughter and sing with her while we were driving. From there, we went to my parent's house and spent the afternoon eating and being with my family. I so enjoyed talking with my Granny and Papa! They are so wonderful to me. On an interesting note, my Granny had two children other than my mother that did not survive after birth. The most ironic thing in the world is that Ady was born on Richard's birthday (Richard is the boy my Granny lost) and now Ainsley is due on August 8th, which is close to when Mary Denise (the girl my Granny lost) was born (August 2nd)....I think Ainsley may make her appearance a few days early!! It is neat how the Lord redeems days and memories as he does. Thank you for taking a sorrowful day and turning it to joy!
More thoughts to come....
