Hello from Royal Oak

Hello

I made it to Tracy’s house. Paul leaves for China in just a few hours. He first goes to Japan for a meeting then off to China. He is excited to ride on a train that will go over 300 miles an hour from the airport to the city he will be staying. He loves the adventure! I am sure he took his camera and I will post a few pictures.

Joy I am 56 wonderful years! I love my fifties! I am have a great time. My birthday was so nice. I went to my Thursday Bible study. The women there have been just fabulous friends and so very nice to me. They made me a southern pound cake. I think it was just like the one I saw Paula Dean make. It had a pound of butter and buttermilk and melted in your mouth. Then we went to lunch and had Chinese. I gave myself a present of a facial and full body massage. I loooooooovvvvveeeedddd it! Then I went to Stephen Ministry training and they had birthday muffins and a candle for me. When I got home Paul was home from Detroit. All in all it was a wonderful day. I am just overwhelmed at how nice everyone has been to me on my Birthday and I really only been here for six months. Southern hospitality is really true. It was also nice that so many of my friends from Michigan remembered me too. I got flowers delivered and cards and little presents in the mail. I really felt special and loved.

I hope Isaac is better soon. There is nothing worse then a ear that hurts all the time. Didn’t Ryan have tubes when he was little? I seem to remember that he did. I will keep the boy’s in my daily prayers for healing.

I am still amazed at the wonderful art work the boys did! I hope they post more. I love the bright colors and wonder that is shown in the work. Good job guys, I visit you work on the web often.


Well take care everyone and know that you are loved.
Emily
