It has been a long two days on the road. We were graced with sunshine and warmer temperatures as we crossed over the Texas state line. It was nice to see the sun, as yesterday we spent the majority of the day driving in rain. Thank goodness we are now resting comfortable at our family's home. We were greeted by our four legged friends Tango and Jitterbug. They have grown since our last visit. They have not forgotten me, as they are sitting right next to me. They are still two curious cats full of energy. I wish I could borrow some of that energy.
Today as we were driving past the Texas state line I recalled that this was the twelfth trip here in two and a half years. We have logged 36,000 miles on our car and four airplane trips to Texas. God has graced us to make it safely every time. And, many blessings to our Texas family and friends who are here to welcome us each time. All things are possible with love and determination.
It will be a busy week as we head off tomorrow to Md Anderson Cancer Center, for my husband to have test, doctor's appointments, and treatment. This will be the last treatment of the journey that started in January of 2011. We have been blessed with his good response to treatment and we pray that he will continue to be blessed.
Two years ago the journey's end seemed so far away and yet it has arrived so quickly. I thank God for every day spent with my hero husband. He is the number one man in my life. We have made it through some tough times and our faith in God and love for each other has given us strength to never give up.
So what do you get with two buckeyes and a spoiled dog named Laney? A life with no regrets filled with love and kisses everyday whether the sun shines or not.
Life is beautiful !!
Elizabeth
