Just another wonderful weekend in Mayberry, I mean Grosse Pointe. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures to post. We had a fairly quite weekend. We went to the Easter Market yesterday with Jeanie. It is like a huge farmers market. Great adventure and lots of delicious fruits and vegetables. Josie was thrilled to get so many Michigan corn. They are super sweet right now. We took a summer nap for a couple of hours, much needed after saying up until after 11 PM with the cousins. What a treat to be with them. My cousin Suzy we also here. She lost her beautiful 16 year old son, Tim, to cancer 3 weeks ago. I am in awe of her courage and strength. Her battle alongside her brave son is one of the greatest love stories ever. They both fought for 7 years. I am humbled by their story and faith. Suzy, we love you and are so proud of you.
After church today, we watched the end to a very inspiring British Open. What another remarkable story and life changing moment for Louie and South Africa. WOW and to do it on Nelson Mandela's birthday. Hollywood couldn't have scripted that any better. After that we were off to the village and then to the pool. We left the pool went to the store and on the way home got caught in a rain storm. Josie was tucked away all snug and dry in her bike trailer. I was weathering the storm, literally. We had to laugh the whole way home as it would pour and then stop and then repeat. I was a wet rat when we finally arrived but it was so funny to Josie it was worth every moment of getting soaked.
Tonight we watched The Blind Side. It was the first time we had seen it. Inspiring. Can I adopt everyone from the projects of Detroit?? Josie loved it too. During the movie she would just spontaneously reach over an hug me. She is such a sweet, sensitive soul. Off to bed to get ready for a big week. Josie has Chickadees and also starts the Fast Reading program at the local elementary school tomorrow. It is important to get her proficiently reading. I hope this program will accomplish that. Night, Jenny and Josie
