Love One Another
We are on the final countdown to the end of school year 2011-2012. Cody continues in weight training & Katie starts swim club. All three kids are going to camps at some point this summer and our weekends seem to be filling up quickly. Kyle continues to work and we are having our first parents meeting for the 2013 graduating class. How was it that a blink of an eye I was a new mother? Now my boys both look down at me and their sister is almost my height?
Tom and I had a great time at the wedding reception. I got out on the dance floor to shake things up with Cousin Susan, the wedding party and Aunt Judy. Tom even came out on the dance floor a few times! The next morning we were up early and headed to West Bloomfield. Tom had 2 days of scans which he handled pretty well. The Tigers game was cancelled which probably was a blessing as Tom was not feeling all that great, but he had such a positive attitude. The results on Tuesday came back Stable, but a side note that he needs to CONSISTENTLY take his Potassium. I know that he has a hard time taking this pill and does his best, but he does tend to skip it frequently. His levels were low, but a mild discussion about it's importance and they let him come home.
I also took Wednesday off that week and Tom bought me a new set of golf clubs and we went to the Dungeon for lunch which is in Tom's childhood stomping grounds. We had a great day together and the day flew by for having no "plans". Thursday I took a trip with our daughters 6th Grade class to the Chicago Science & Industry Museum. We had a great day and I was exhausted when we got back home. Friday I tried not to pout about going back to work :)
Today we had a fitting sermon about God is Love. Pastor Gary said that because God is Love his flavor flows through all he does. Apostle John wrote about Love and he states: The Lord commands us to Love , if that alone is done it suffices. He ended that Jesus commanded us to Love one Another. All through out my life, my mother ended every note she wrote & laid upon our counter "Love One Another" What a smart and loving woman she truly is and I feel so blessed to have her in my life. I hope that I have left that same influence upon the people I meet. Life can be hard and if we let bitterness settle in, we miss the opportunity that life has to offer.
1 John 3:23 "And this is what God says we must do: Believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another."
