What a fine son you have there:).<br /><br />I am not a car person at all at all.. so don't even know what that one is you bought , but I hear on the safety and comfort issues. And the seat warmers. Luv my seat warmers when I do the morning school drive in my pj's at below zero temps.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15924061349390319473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6994832747844483996.post-41290718656452233182010-10-27T20:36:18.054-07:002010-10-27T20:36:18.054-07:00Your nature pictures are gorgeous.

And I am certain that David is thrilled to finally have "his" car back. I also enjoyed reading your letter to the editor. I hope everyone who needs to read it, will do so and see themselves in it.

Shout-out for rockin' the Broadcast News quote, girl!<br /><br />Speaking of rockin', you are also rockin' that coat -- lookin' fabulous.<br /><br />The weekend sounded truly wonderful ... some time on campus, and some time away as well out in peaceful, natural surroundings (so important when one is in college!) and a smorgasbord of friends too, old and new. <br /><br />I was really struck by the brief description of your cleaning Katie's NG tube in the wee hours while she slept. Could not help but see your hands as Christ's hands, his love flowing through them, through you, out to her ... doing the small thing with great love in the hopes of sparing her just one more painful procedure. I don't mean for this to sound romantic; it sounds gritty and painstaking -- and infused with great love.<br /><br />JenniferJenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14268248583183647916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6994832747844483996.post-36104682877882339512010-10-27T10:14:18.474-07:002010-10-27T10:14:18.474-07:00Beautiful weekend, and tender memories.

Our frig was always stocked with Coke. I used to literally cry when we couldn't unclog it for the trauma it was going to cause. At least they don't have tubes now.

How fun! ...Love all the pictures and your new car! How fun! I agree with you about road trips and snacking. I have a tendency to get car sick on long trips and I have found the cure is to snack! My favorite car trip snack is Tim's Cascades Jalapeno Chips and a big diet Dr. Pepper. You'd think that something spicy would be bad for my tummy....but it's a sure cure every time!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09981661006320994463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6994832747844483996.post-15912314332761880152010-10-25T12:32:13.747-07:002010-10-25T12:32:13.747-07:00Fall colors!
