WE ARE BACK

So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom (Psalm 90:12).

Yesterday, my son, Paul married Jenny Franklin of Austin, MN.  Helen and I, our children, grandchildren and in laws spent last week staying in the Log-Cabin Inn of Rose Creek, Minnesota vacationing as well as preparing for the wedding.  The cabin was made of real twelve-inch logs; it was rustic yet very enjoyable and perfect for our family.  On the wall of the cabin was a hanging which said, "Life is not the number of breaths you take, but it is the number of moments that take your breath away."  An author wasn't credited on the hanging, but whoever wrote it gave us an important means of evaluating our lives.

We are home now, tired and weary, but it is a weariness that is good because of all of those good moments associated with it.  Those moments took our breath away--what a blessing!

Our Father's Blessings,
Tom
