When Mu comes over?

Every year, Heaven surprises me. 29 years married and our house got in such a tumult that they had to send Mu to calm it down. Elyse didn't get the memo. We have all been on High alert about En's condition and he is sometimes walking and we are always watching him. We took our anniversary drive and took Enoch with us. {he hasn't been well for a while} We forgot to tell the household. It wasn't raining where we were. We went to the park. We saw En smile for a minute. The house was in a tumult. The hawks told us, a cardinal came and said it to us. We had no idea. We drove back in the pouring rain that always reminds me of Mu and Sunken Meadows park when we were kids. When we got home Elyse had been out searching for her brother, outside with a dear neighbor. She was soaked to the skin. We all felt loved. We all felt God's blessing in family. If he was out there walking, she would have found him. She is his oldest sister. I know how she feels. I have lived to love baby brothers and sisters and husband and children. That is what life is all about. Nothing is like the passion that makes you leave the comfort of home to search for the lost. We know she has a missionary heart of prayer for different people groups, but her charity begins at home and Mu's torrential reminder of rain was an anniversary gift to remind us what love is all about. Heaven and earth collide in family.
