I'm Back

I've been away for a little while, but for good reasons. We had a few family matters going on.  Remember me asking for a prayer request for my boo?  We just want to say THANK YOU for your prayers!!!  There were no changes during her checkup for nodules on her thyroid.  So no news is good news.  She has another appointment in nine months, so please keep her in prayer.

The next family matter we had was a house fire at my in-laws.  This would be Ed Hughes a.k.a(Fry Guy), and his wife Nemesis.  As soon as we got the call about the fire, I immediately flew to the house with supersonic speed, assessed the situation, and went to work.  Ed was trying heroically to put the fire out, so I picked up the rest of the family and flew them to safety.   Whew, it pays to have a brother in-law as a SUPER HERO.  By the time I got back to get Ed, he was out of the house.  He received some 2nd and 3rd degree burns on his hands and feet, but he has recovered well.  I would tell you how the fire started but that would take a long, long, long, long time.  It had to do with french fries burning (hence the name Fry Guy), grease, and somebody who had trouble cooking.  I'm just saying.  We can joke about it now, but it was a little scary.  Oh, by the way, I'm okay. Hahahahahahaha!!!!

The last family issue we had was my baby boy, Tunk, got hit in the head with a shovel by his brother, accidentally.  That was scary, he had a nice little gash in his head.  We were visiting Rog, Flo and the crew down south before number 7 gets here.  Man, his first trip to the emergency room.  Four staples and four hours later, he was in la la land.  He was a trooper through it all, but that's no surprise to me, it runs in the family.  He gets it from his mom.  Hahahahahahaha!!!!  That accident saved my boy Rog from getting totally embarrassed in our Madden Tournament.  I had been BEATING him so bad, I was going to take it easy on him for his birthday.  Besides that what friends do, we show MERCY.  Isn't that right Rog?


 Humor is a good thing.  We should always laugh at every opportunity given to us.  Life is short, and we must use everyday we have to bless someone.  Those who know me know what really happened at the fire, I just added my humor to it.  God has given us all a gift, once you find yours, use it for His glory.  I will never race with my kids again, play tag, or throw them in the air to catch them.  I will never walk on the beach, or run with my boo and the kids again.  What I will do is enjoy every day I have with them and my wife.  I may not be running now, but I will be Running in Heaven.
