Ramblings........

I promise..nothing about Efusjon in this post. Well, one thing! It just keeps getting better and better! I would never have dreamed and now all I do is dream.
First of all, happy birthday to my son. I am so proud of him. Yesterday he went to the doctor and his Type 2 diabetes is gone. He has lost in excess of 80 lbs., blood pressure was great. Wish his Grandpa Sheneman was still here to see him as he always asked me how "Trey is doing with his weight?" He's doing great daddy. Hard to believe he is 26 years old. When I was 26, Stacey was already here and Trey was just around the corner. Where has the time gone? I remember laying in the hospital bed the night before my heart surgery in 1991 and asking God just to give me enough time to see both the kids graduate from high school. Isn't it just like God to give us more than we ask for?? Thank you Lord for all the days, all the hours, and all the blessings.
I miss seeing my little girl (you too Joey) and Tripp and Makinley everyday. Before they moved to MAdison and I needed a "fix", I could hop in the car and be with them in just a few minutes. Not so anymore, but that's OK. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. I'm proud of my Stacey Baby. Not only does she work full-time and take care of her family as well, she has now gone back to school to get her masters in education. I don't care who you are...that's a massive undertaking and full plate.
We're heading to Orlando in a few weeks. Our nephew, Mark, is doing a internship at Disneyworld for the next 4-5 months and we're going down to make sure he isn't abusing Minnie. The part of our Efusjon TEAM H.O.P.E. that is Florida based is also having a event down there on October 3rd and we want to be there and be part of the excitement.
We're providing dinner tonight for Stacie Walker and her family. Keep her in your prayers. A very young mon and wife who has only recently been diagnosed with breast cancer and just had her breasts removed and has chemo to go through now. We serve a big God and nothing catches Him unaware. We just believe in His healing powers and His enormous love for each of His children.
Anyway, enough with the ramblings....
GO NC STATE...beat USC Gamecocks! College football is back TONIGHT!
