What a difference a day makes?
So just after I awoke (it was pretty late today) I received a phone call from my Mom telling me that my dear Poppa had passed away. We knew this day was coming soon. He has been sick with congestive heart failure for many years and within the last few weeks he was place in Hospice care. Today I have been in a fog. I made travel arrangements, bought a suitcase, and made guest teacher plans for the three days I will be gone. In the back of my mind continued to be this thought I wish there was someone here to hold me up through this. As I reflect on my day there have been many people to hold me up. My dear friends who are sacrificing their sleeping in time to take me to the airport. My friends who are texting me during their time in Disneyland with hugs, kisses and love. My friends who I didn't even have to ask to watch over my house and get my mail, she offered first. My coworkers who offered to help me in any way they could. These are the people that I have in my life. I am extremely thankful for all of these wonderful people in my life. It is good for me to remember that I have all of these blessings in my life. Sometimes I am quick to forget about these blessings and wish for that ONE person. Be careful there Ms. Melissa. You already know who your Savior is.
