Happy birthday, George. And Happy Twos Day. 2-22-22. Everybody set your alarm for 2 p.m., go out in the front yard wherever you are and yell, “Happy twos day!” Really celebrate.
Now
back to our final day in Waco. We just
relaxed in the morning yesterday while Josh went to a meeting at work. And by “relaxed” I mean I took a nap. This one happened while I was sitting on the couch. Just snuck up and completely overwhelmed
me. I could get used to this nap
thing. One in the morning … done.
Chris
spent some time playing with AnnaGrace.
I’m not sure what all they did, but at one time they were tossing a
glider airplane back and forth across the living room. For a good ten minutes. Looked like fun. I got in a throw or two when crashes happened
to occur near – or on – me. Of course
the airport couldn’t open until Luke was willing to take a break from the indoor
living room basketball court.
We
had lunch at Jason’s Deli. Great place
for good food, if you’re every around done.
I really like their potato soup.
Deli sandwich is good, too. And
they have free ice cream cones. Josh
brought us a surprise gift from the office.
It was a collection of construction paper cards telling “congratulations
on your retirement.” Who from? Some of the little kiddos we met when we went
to children’s camp with them. Thanks,
guys. We love you. After lunch Josh headed back to work. We went on back to the house to pack up and
head home.
We
made our usual stop at Buc-ees for a bathroom break. Strangely, that’s all it was this time. We had plenty of gas. Neither of us wanted a snack, so no caramel
coated cashews or popcorn or BLT sandwich.
We decided to wait until home for supper. Shortest Buc-ees stop ever. Oh, and while Chris drove, I did my best to
read the latest John Grisham book. I
confess, though, that I did have a hard time staying awake. Not because of the book. It’s a really good book. It’s just what I do when I’m a passenger in the
car. Well, that, and I think my
afternoon body was feeling a little jealous that my morning body got to take a
nap. Challenge accepted. Nap in the afternoon … done.
Oh,
and one last thing … as great as it always is to see the Waco branch of the
family, it was good to be back home.
Luke
16:10 says, “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted
with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest
with much.”
Father,
thank you for our safe journey to Waco and back. It was a good choice to wait those few weeks when
it was so icy up there. Amen.
