sleep finally overtook last night
thankfully, dad slept good enough
as did meme...she looked great considering it all!
final arrangements are made
now to finish baking "papaw's poppy seed" muffins for the refreshments
i remember taking one to him last sunday morning in icu
he was already working on it before i left!
oh, how i wish he could have one now.....


She sits by the window with wandering eyes
She has a song in her heart
And a golden disguise
Her body is torn because age doesn’t heal
She’s not letting on
About the pain that she feels
But she knows in her soul
That it won’t be too long
’til jesus comes back
To carry her home...

Where there will be no more pain
No more sorrow
No more waiting
For illusive tomorrows
There will be no more pain
No more dying
No more striving or strain
No more pain

My mind’s eye remembers the trouble I’ve seen
All I have been through,
And how I long to be free
But I learn by her patience that I need her resolve
To wait for the opening of eternity’s halls
And I know that in time we will stand side by side
When jesus comes back receiving his bride
