Take care of your back there darlin'. I will keep you in my prayers.

Glad you could enjoy sometime away before heading to Orlando.

Daughter Carolyn is back in the DR. She will return home for good at the end of June.

Youngest daughter, Kathryn, is getting ready to graduate from high school during Memorial Day weekend. Her eye is better, but still healing. We meet with the retina specialist again in July. Saw him last week and he said that it continues to heal slowly.

Son Steven is working at UPS during the night, and going to school throughout the day.

I was able to buy my wife a dozen chocolate dipped strawberries from Shari's Berries! They came in yesterday and are extraordinary.

Happy Mother's Day to you!

Congratulations to Kathryn! She is accomplishing quite a bit, recovering from that horrific accident AND being able to graduate, too. Not having to see the doc again until July is a good sign that things are progressing on schedule. If things weren’t going well, they’d want to see her sooner.

Chocolate covered strawberries, yum!

I know Carolyn has enjoyed her time in DR. Winters will never be quite the same for her again.

Your son sounds very diligent. It is hard to maintain a work schedule and studies at the same time.

It is obvious that you and your wife did well for your children. To see the successes in their life speaks highly of you both.

Thank you for your prayers for my back. As I was drifting off to sleep last night, I was discussing with God what His will for me in all this is. I used to be very active outdoors and hike and garden and volunteer to do things like clean up after disasters. But now I must hold back or I’ll be an additional part of the problem. It is very frustrating for me. It is the frustration and the lack of direction that I’ve been discussing with Our Father.
