Back much later probably

One last note this morning...we're so excited about moving to a room with Ellie!  Well, I say "we" but Jeff doesn't even know yet :).  I speak on behalf of both of us as my dear father-in-law is famous for saying.

Sunday mornings there is always brunch at the RMcD house so as soon as mass ends I can't wait to tell Jeff we are going to head there and pack up our room and have brunch!  I'm going to do something that I've never ever been good at which is to try to will my brain to enjoy hidden moments or "gifts" during a challenging time like this.  Being grateful and even (gasp) trying to have fun during hard times is something most of us can say we struggle with.  In the words of John Paul II and that hilarious song I keep replaying -

 

Authentic love and true freedom are in Jesus Christ,
to be full of hope and joy, give of yourself to others.
