As she entered the kitchen this morning Cathy said, "Ah, Tuesday." Energy-wise and personality-wise Cathy was about normal today. Her digestion is still a little bit off, but all else was pretty good. A new thing this time around is mouth sores. They seem to come and go pretty quickly, like one that was on her lip this morning and gone by evening. We expected those last time, but they didn't really materialize. Cathy has been able to give a little more of herself to Clara the last couple of days, also. It has been beautiful to bring Clara to Cathy in the morning or after a nap and watch Clara's smile grow as she gets closer. No one can get Clara lit up like Cathy can.
God is certainly at work with all of us here. It's not always what we want but it's always what we need. Today, especially, has reminded me of the scene in the movie, Evan Almighty, when Morgan Freeman (who seems to always get the role of God when there is one to be played) is a waiter in a restaurant. He tells the mom that if she prays for patience God won't give her patience, but instead He'll give her opportunities to be patient. Many opportunities...
There was a post I did over the weekend that seems to have been lost somewhere in cyberspace. I wonder what happened to it. I don't even remember what I wrote, but I remember writing. Hmm.
