Remembering

Memorial Day in the past has never meant as much to me as this one. Justin, my son in law is in Afghanistan finishing up his year of duty. He was involved in enemy fire just these past few days. His good friend Ben was hit, or so they thought, and as Justin fired back to protect him, Ben crawled to the truck for safety. As they looked Ben over, they found out that his side plate had been shattered and only his skin was very bruised. At first we would say whew.....but I KNOW that protection came from GOd's people praying!!!! THe boys were shook up over that but I fired an email off right away to let them know God is answering prayer. Praise You Father!

Ryan has graduated. Yea!!! The best thing about this weekend was watching God's saints pour into my house and show Ryan the love of Christ. Ryan has not been coming to church and has not developed any deep relationships at church. But, God's people were faithful and I am amazed at that, and I have been taught once again a life lesson from those I go to church with. What a great church family I have. I love them dearly. We had a great time having the party and watching Ryan walk up to that podium and culminate his years of learning at PCHS. I am excited to keep praying for Ryan's next journey and see where God will lead. He has chosen ICC for his first year of college and we are glad about that. This community is blessed to have such a nice community college so close with so much opportunity at our fingertips.

By the way, Dad's incision did not have to be opened and has begun healing very nicely. Little by little his strength is returning. I am taking Mom for blood work today, her monthly appointment.

Life is good and God is faithful. Love ya, Kim
