It occurred to me – while being teased about my lack of blogging last week – that I failed to give an update on the prayer request for my friend. I met them at the courthouse on Wednesday morning – and I missed the whole thing due to backed up traffic on I-70. I arrived as they were finishing up. 😦 Everything went very well and my friend will be able to remain in his home with his family. They still have a long road ahead of them, but we believe the worst is behind them. I am so thankful for answered prayers on their behalf! You are all blessings to me, my family, and my friends! Thank You!
Friday was our last day of school at FACE until Fall, though we still have graduation and the promotional ceremony, the talent show, the awards banquet, etc. throughout the month of May and early June. I have mixed feelings about it being the end of the school year for FACE. I have built friendships with some of the other parents that I only see on Fridays and I’m not sure if they are the kinds of friendship that will endure through the summer…or will they just pick up where we left off when we all come back for classes in the Fall? I’m terrible at making and keeping play dates with people. It seems that more often than not something comes up that prevents me from following through. Just ask my co-coordinator for Moms and Kids at church. I help plan the activities then only make it to a third of them myself. Maybe that’s o.k. I’m not expected to be at everything, but maintaining relationships does require some time sacrifices. I guess I need to determine where my priorities are, right?
If you have a few minutes, go visit my Sex, Love, and Marriage blog. I’m interviewing Drenda Thomas, a woman who runs a ministry dedicated to reaching out to the people who work (and visit) strip clubs in the Houston, TX area. Drenda and her team are amazing individuals doing a great thing for the men and women they meet in the adult entertainment industry!
