I’m FINALLY feeling better! I didn’t post for quite awhile because this cold just became worse and worse and it finally required anti-biotics. It’s taken the better part of a few weeks or more to start feeling better. I still have remnants but at least I’m not laid out like I was. This is a repeat of what happened last spring but I think it’s come and gone now. Thank you for all of the emails and comments on the site. Your words of encouragement have meant a lot.
So Father’s Day – it was really nice. My son Aidan – he has such a soft heart and as you’ve seen in other posts, he loves to color. Well, he made a card for me and this one wasn’t so much coloring but it brought tears to my eyes. These are the moments I live for. This is why I want time. There are are hard times, yes. Really tough times. Tough times at home trying to deal with what we call a “new normal”. Tough times juggling work, medications, and doctors. A very heavy load on my wife having to pick up pieces because I can’t do what I used to do. Most of you know exactly what I’m talking about.
But…there are these wonderful bright spots that shine through. Sometimes you have to look for them and sometimes they are right in front of you. This was right in front of me on Sunday.
I’ll just place it in this post and close here.

So many people don’t look for these special moments! I especially like that besides the coat and tie that his Dad wears to work, he wears a smile! You are setting such a good example for your boys — to always persevere, and never give up — and to enjoy the special moments of life. So happy to hear you are over the worst part of a wicked cold. God Bless you and your family! Vivian
