today will be pretty busy as i have not packed a thing yet. so, i have to do that, some laundry and then make something for us to eat on the way to our son's.

went to the doctor with melissa yesterday and we got to see joshua's face. she and the baby are doing fine. but, when the doctor heard about her work situation, he put her on immediate maternity leave. i think she was relieved.

well, i hope you all keep well while i am gone. i will try and check in once in a while.

next week will not be easy but i will make it through i know. my dad and i shared the same birthday and this is the first one without him. so, i am going to the cemetary that day. i know that i will break down, but i feel that this is something that i have to do.

take care,

ellen

Have a safe and happy trip, Ellen.

Part of it will be bitter-sweet, but you will be comforted by memories of the good times you and your DF shared.

Enjoy!

Francine

PS Great news about your DD! Bravo for Doc!

Ellen,

I hope that I did not miss saying goodbye to you. I pray that you all will have a safe trip. I especially pray that you find peace when you visit your DFather's resting place. You know that he is still alive in your heart and that you still have his love as he watches over you from Heaven.

Enjoy time with your family, and check in with your Garden family here, if you find the time.

Hugs,

Dannie
