Got this wonderful email from Lynn. It is good. I hope that I can go through the tough times and not fall short.
Crosswalk
Every once and a while, a seemingly simple email comes around that ends up being quite profound. This is one of them
Awesome!! We complain about the cross we bear but don't realize it is preparing us for the dip in the road that God can see and we cannot. Whatever your cross,whatever your pain,there will always be sunshine, after the rain....Perhaps you may stumble, perhaps even fall;But God's always ready, to answer your call....He knows every heartache, sees every tear,a word from His lips, can calm every fear...Your sorrows may linger, throughout the night,But suddenly vanish, by dawn's early light...The Savior is waiting, somewhere above,to give you His grace, and send you His love.May God fill your day with blessings!!
Nicole came home this weekend, and it is so fun to have them all together. They are so funny when they all get together. Not loving coming home and trying to catch everything up. Hate laundry, but I do have some good news.
We are going to Maui next Friday. Doc gave the ok and said it would be good for both of us.
Gained 8 pounds in 3 weeks on prednisone, so hopefully they won't mistake me for a beached whale! LOL. Don't have nothing to take......nothing fits, but I am excited, I love to snorkel!!!!

Snorkeling?? WOW! What DON'T you do?? I am impressed!
Maybe you can find a beach where you don't have to wear ANYTHING! That might be a solution?? :)

Oh I understand what it's like to be on Prednisone!! I gained over 11 lbs in 1 week while on that stuff! Not something to be proud of, but it's normal.
I hope that you guys have a wonderful time and that you do get to snorkel!!

Have so much fun nice to get away and try to forget about the trials and make some new memories!! I love this post how true it is eh!!!
That was so awesome! we never know when we are going to need that cross to get over something major in our lives or to help someone else get over something major in their lives. I just love that!
