Thank you all for your prayers during my recent visit with my family back in the US. It was a blessed time of fun, laughter, work, and tears. It was so good to visit with mom and dad and get to see them and talk with them about all that's going on. It is so difficult to be so far away when loved ones are hurting and suffering!
While Dad's illness has been challenging he has maintained a good perspective and has been a fairly good patient. He does not always seem to want to take it easy, even when he was also recently suffering with pneumonia as well. Thankfully he has recovered from the pneumonia and is doing well at the present.
While I was there my oldest brother Tony and his family came down from St. Louis, MO to visit. My niece Blair Allen and her family came in from California to visit. My nephew Rusty and his family came up from King's Bay, GA to visit. And my brother Scott and his family came over frequently to make the time that much more special!
I praise God for my family and how God has used them to nurture and bless me my whole life! I can't say enough about how much I love everyone and how much I miss everyone. thank you God for such a special father and mother! I would not be the man I am today without their love, support, correction, direction, and presence! Thank you mom and dad!
It was hard to leave, but Wendy and the children waiting on me back in Brazil was a sweet consultation and gift! I arrived home to great cheers, hugs, and kisses. What a reception! Thank you family!
