Relating to this Reflection
I woke up this morning thinking about my father and my sister’s dream. When I turned on the daily reflection that I listen to most mornings, the speaker, Jeff Cavins, talked about his father. He recently died and today would be his funeral. I cried through most of it. Here are a couple of thoughts […]
Sister’s Dream
My sister told me about a dream she had. She was with my dad. He put his hands on her shoulders and just looked at her with a smile on his face and a twinkle in his eye. What a beautiful dream – or was it? This is how I like to remember my dad. […]
Doing Well So Far
My daughter in law had surgery on her ankle last week. Today I took her to her doctor’s appointment. After carefully getting her out of the house and into the car, we packed up her knee scooter and off we went. She initially had fun on her scooter as it rolled much easier on the […]
A Holy Moment
I was happy to see a friend to sit with at Mass this morning. Afterwards we decided to go downstairs to partake in the Knights of Columbus breakfast. Today they served breakfast burritos, which were pretty tasty. As we ate, a gentleman approached my friend and gave her a big hug. I got to know […]
The Dark Drive
Since my daughter in law is incapacitated from her ankle surgery a few days ago, I have been helping them out. Tonight I picked up one of my grandsons from an event. It was the first time I drove at night with my new glasses. It was wonderful. I don’t usually even drive at night. […]
Made of Music
I have had the pleasure of spending much time with my granddaughter the past couple days. She is always humming and singing and tapping in rhythm. She has always loved singing and has always been quite good. Last year she started taking singing lessons and is really improving her tone. Even so, she hasn’t really […]
Safe in the Storm
My sister and her husband live near the eastern coast of Florida. Earlier this week we talked with them about the incoming hurricane. They were going to sit it out in their home. It is a fairly new house and made of concrete blocks. They brought in all the outdoor furniture and plants and anything […]
Surgery Went Well
My daughter in law has been having troubles with one of her ankles for a very long time. Finally she was able to find a doctor who diagnosed the torn ligament properly. Today she had surgery on it. My son took the day off work to be with her. I helped by picking the kids […]
Learned From Dad
Today I was looking through a scrapbook that my dad made of some of his award winning photos. I came across a picture of a cabin in the mountains that looked somewhat familiar. It turned out that it was one of the same places that I took a picture of when I drove the dirt […]
About the Medals
Today I had a medical appointment. The nurse noticed my necklace and asked about all the medals on it, which is quite a collection. I explained each one to her. I have a sturdy chain that holds a crucifix, a Miraculous Medal, St. Michael the Archangel, and the Guardian angel. Also, after my mom died, […]
