October

Seems like it is the last rose of summer...and where did it go? Some days it makes me very lonesome to look over my life amd see just how fast time goes by. A lot of things happened this summer. We have been to Lebonon Mo. we have been to Branson we have been to Tulsa Ok. to Kansas City a couple of times, we have been to Colorado and in a week and a half we are flying to Chicago. I became a greatgrandma this Sept. I can't wait to see that little girl.

Our band has been playing out a lot more...it has been fun....God has given us some beautiful fall days...

Found out this past week my oldest sister has cancer....it saddens me to think that now I am in the generations that my parents were in when I was younger and that time seemed so far away....but young or old we are not promised tomorrow....and again we never know what tomorrow will bring...

On a brighter note....God is good, He provides our every need....the roses that bloom, the sunsets and sunrises....baby's cry.....I love where I am in life....go and come when the urge hits...bike riding, the grandchildren....so I am saying we need to stop and smell the last rose of summer....inhale the sweet, sweet fragrance...admire the beauty of the changing colors of autumn..get out your warm cozy blankets and snuggle up....drink up some pumpkin spice coffee...and enjoy and be thankful for what we have....

Dear Evy...you said God is good, and He was good to your oldest sister, too. He gave her courage to face her battle, acceptance for the future...and peace about the whole matter. She was a shining witness to all. God is good!! So good to us, and we don't deserve a bit of it. That's what makes it so precious, isn't it?? Love, BJR
