Today's the day...

The day for what I'm sure you are wanting to know? For starters it is my official first day of summer! After teaching about 75 sixth graders for the past year I am ready for some r and r. So how do I celebrate such a wonderful day? By doing what all my lady friends over age 40 need to do once a year-I'm having a mammogram! Maybe I'm not supposed to talk about that on my blog, but after loosing my dear friend Ann to breast cancer a few years ago, I know how important this is. So I urge you too, if you haven't made that appointment- Do it today! It could save your life! Today is also the day my 86 year old grandmother goes to the cardiologist to see if her heart is strong enough for surgery to remove a mass the dr feels she needs to have removed. Today is also the day my son flies home from Guatemala after a great trip riding bulls. And then today is my dear friend Rebecca's birthday. She is wonderful servant of the Lord serving as a missionary in Mexico and I miss her terribly. Today is also the day we will continue to pray for the little girl on the other side of the world that God has planned for our family. We will be seeking more answers and a clear word from the Lord. Please pray for all of these sweet little orphans that wait on a forever home. So sweet bloggy friends, "this is the day the Lord has made..." and today is the day I need to feel the Lord's presence as I ask for your prayers.
