Driving Lessons

                  

Yesterday we visited with some dear people. Mr. and Mrs. J are the parents of a close friend. I practically grew up in their home, had many a sleep-over there. In the past few years they have moved further north.  We were up their way and were able to have lunch, and spend the afternoon enjoying their company. They are just precious people, and Big C enjoyed himself MORE than he expected to.

Mr. and Mrs J live in a cute little retirement community. Many residents there tool around on golfcarts, and the J's are no exception. Mr. J took C out for some "driving lessons". C was eager to give it a whirl...

While we waited, I kept my eyes closed chit-chatted with Mrs. J. :) No emergency vehicles were necessary, Big C is a natural! What a relief! They invited us to stay the night, and if we had planned better we would have. It was so nice to spend time with such a charming and lovely couple. Wish my friend K could have been there, but spending time with her parents was equally enjoyable. 
It was so nice to have a day with Big C where we could really talk, no interruptions from little brothers, etc on the car ride. At first he was pretty incensed about having to make the trip. Often he gets a bit carsick on long car trip. However, once on the road he began to relax. God has been doing a mighty work in Big C's heart- he shared so much with me on the drive, a huge thank you to all of you who have been praying. Please keep them coming...they mean so much to us!
