Wow! It's been a huge week. I'm not the bearer of fun, interesting news. More introspection. We had two funerals to attend this week.
The first funeral was my mother's cousin's 26 year old son. He was very ill and had spent 5 months in the hospital. Although I didn't know him, it seemed, from what was said at the funeral, that he allowed his illness to be a ministry to his family.
The second funeral was for a 61 year old friend of our family. He had a brain tumor that he thought was licked, but wasn't. His life was one that was longer, and affected many people. He remained positive and was an incredible influence on his children and those around him. His son gave an incredible eulogy. I can only hope that our children will have some of the same to say about us.
That's where we have been - among doing income tax, shopping for jeans for Matthew (nothing seems to fit as he grows during the night) and more.
4" of snow yesterday.
