Candie arrived home on Wednesday morning for a 3 week visit. It's always so fun to have her home and the kids are really happy to have her around again. We began planning our vacation earlier in the year and were delighted when Candie said she'd join us. Yesterday she spent the day with her childhood friend (and our former neighbor) Mary, Mary's husband and brand-new baby boy, Ashton. Today she's accompanying Nikki and Ray to the softball tournament in Escondido. David and I will join them tomorrow morning. If Thomas were home, life would be almost perfect!
I'm reminded again of how fast time goes by these days. Nikki's All Star season is almost over and before we know it we'll be getting ready for school again. It's become abundantly clear that if I blink, I might miss something important. What's important to me is the memories the children will have of these days together. Candie and Rick sometimes talk about fun things we did when they were young and I hope it'll be the same for Nikki and David. I'm sure when Thomas comes home from Iraq we'll be able to make more good memories with him.
Please continue to pray for, and support, our troops and their families. Have a great weekend.
