Heavy Heart

I have been busy. But, I am always busy this time of year. Today will be no different. I am usually enchanted with nature and outside doing all the necessary things that Spring growth brings. The snow we had recently was a surprise, but seems a distant memory, as everything is either blooming or green and growing by the minute.

While my body is busy working, my mind is always occupied. Lately it has been a dismal occupation. Our friend, best camp worker ever, aka my wife, Kevin is sick. I was mean to him and forced him to go to the hospital, only to find out that he has cancer. To say that we are devastated is an understatement. His cancer mirrors my Dad's.

Today is Easter, a time to rejoice. I am choosing to believe that God works miracles. Kevin is coming home today. Please offer up prayers for my friend who is like the younger brother I never had.

I will be mowing today, can't have Kevin come home to an unkempt landscape! I would prepare a feast, but he can't eat. 

My heavy heart is lighter today.

So sorry to hear that news about your industrious wife Kevin. I'm hoping that there will be good days when you two can catch up on things he's missed while he was away. He is very lucky to have you and HeWho, but mostly you!

I am so sorry to hear about your wife, Kevin. Prayers for him and you, too.
This devastating news. and the same kind of cancer as your dad's has to be a double whammy for you. Tell Kevin he has a cheering section in blog land.

A few days ago you mentioned that you wish you could talk with your dad. I guess now I know what brought that on. I am so
sorry to learn about Kevin. He has you and us pulling for him.

My Easter started out great and ended in tears as my dad died on Easter Sunday
