Hebrews 12:1-2a

"Let us lay aside every weight,
and the sin which so easily ensnares us,
and let us run with Endurance
the race that is set before us,
looking unto Jesus,
the author and finisher of our faith."
Hebrews 12:1-2a

On the Road - Day 40

Today is Father's Day. Jim wanted to attend Sunday school and church at First Baptist - LaGrange, so we did. We had a restful sleep, getting up at 6:30. We had lunch - delicious lasagna, and after I had a 40-minute nap, got the car loaded to head home. We had to rely on mostly other people to help us load and unload  the car as Jim can't lift anything more than 10 pounds for 4 weeks.

Just as we were about to turn the Mp3 on to listen to music, we discovered some bunny chewed the cable .... what it was doing on the floor when that is where Mr. Bunny was as well, is anybody's guess. I suggested to Jim that we pray the Lord would help us find the correct cable replacement in Canton - and we did, at Dollar General!

We are so grateful the Lord arranged it so we could spend a couple of days in NE Missouri with Larry and Dorothy who opened their home and their hearts to us and to Pammy and many others we haven't seen for months.

We got home at 5:15 p.m. to discover the heat was on. How is a good question. When we left, the air was on, but when we returned, it was 81 degrees in the house. Nearly 4 hours later, at 8:50 p.m., it is 78 degrees. A little more tolerable. Craig doesn't know what happened. He noticed the warmth this morning.

Rocky, Christina and Austin came over around 7, brought roasted chicken and mashed potatoes for us and Father's Day gifts for "PaPa" Jim - he got a T-shirt that says World's Best Grandpa No. 1, a handprint of Austin, a special Father's Day card from Austin, and Rocky told him Happy Father's Day. We enjoyed special time together, with Austin, Christina and I getting wet / dancing with the sprinkler.  We love our family.
