She's dancing and drinking her favorite 'Big Butt Margarita' while singing along to some Buffett. I guess that's why I sang extra loud in the car and kept cracking Debi jokes all day! Love you both! Miss you more and remember, "Big Butt Margaritas' ain't for sissies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388628453136272459.post-72180668688573270812009-05-06T17:59:00.000-04:002009-05-06T17:59:00.000-04:00The day was impressed on Mom's heart for some reas...The day was impressed on Mom's heart for some reason...but apparently it wasn't for reasons that even she knew. Isn't it wonderful how God can remain in control? In my Bible Study last night, we talked about "the wind" that Jesus spoke of when talking to Nicodemus in the gospel of John. This "wind" was and still is the Holy Spirit. I realized that we don't give the Holy Spirit much credit...as we always pray, "Heavenly Father" and "in Jesus' name." Yet, the Holy Spirit dwells within us in a way that is like a quiet whisper of wind or the wailing of a storm. I believe that the Holy Spirit may put upon us such things as those that Mom spoke of when she insisted on May 5. Perhaps it was this quiet whisper that drove me to the Lord yesterday, drove me away from my uncomfortableness (yes, I like to make up new words) and into the arms of the Comforter. No, Manni, you'll have to wait a little while longer to become an Aunt. And, oh, how I wish that we could have had a few more months with Mom...this Sunday will be especially difficult. But, in the end, I'd like to think that we are still paying attention...to whatever God has to tell us, through whomever He chooses to use to tell. Love you Manni and can't wait for you to come see us!Madelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14211707999131531570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388628453136272459.post-37728765341008715132009-05-05T07:46:00.000-04:002009-05-05T07:46:00.000-04:00Today may be special in a way you don't realize un...Today may be special in a way you don't realize until later....later in the day, the week, or later in your life.
