Thank you, Sam!!!!

Ian!!!!!!! Root for the Rockets on Auntie’s account!!!!

What kindness and encouragement this is to me today, Rebekah! Thank you for taking the time to read it.

*Brothers. Praise God, I do have more than one. Lol

Thank you, Ed! If the surgeons are right, before long I could be at great risk of being thrown out of church for dancing. See to it, Lord.

Spinning minds unwind into unwanted contemplation. We’re forced to face what we cannot fix. All we can do is wait and weep. Take time to feel what, especially to those women, was surely the longest day of their lives. Only then can we be properly astonished by the sheer abruptness of the empty tomb.

Oh David. I’m so sorry. Jesus, please be near.

Same.

Thank you, sweetheart!

This day of all days that we recall. The day when no one took Christ’s life from him. He willingly laid it down for us. Today I remember the cross of Christ in communion with those of you who call him Lord. Today nothing else matters. Our lives hung in the balance of the outstretched arms of Jesus.

Oh, unmatched for quoting, Zach.

Incomparable

Dana!!!! How have we not talked about this?!?!

This brings me outrageous joy! Thank you GrammyCami!!!!

Phil, you are so welcome to share the blooms nearer me. These are right on our acres, growing wild. Go ahead and consider them yours as well. Graces from God.

Oh Sarah, I so get that. This is our one really beautiful time of year. And the azaleas! What I do believe is that, what this part of the country lacks in physical beauty and pleasant climate, it makes up for in hospitality. People tend to be warm and friendly. I hope you’ve found that to be true!

That must be so difficult, David.

She has a few accessories but I haven’t seen the nameplate!!

Elizabeth, I love this!
