We were off to Daytona to visit Ali's family for the weekend, especially her dad. He had a heart attack a week ago. He looked really good and was in good spirits. He is such a great storyteller and this time he told us stories of the "good ol' days". I love to sit with him and listen as he tells stories of his mother and how great a musician she was. She played many gigs back in the day. Ali's family is very musically talented. Her father plays the piano strictly by ear. It amazes me. Her brother has written songs for artists and has a poem published in the National Library Of Poems. This was many years ago...but something to be very proud of. Ok I'll stop boasting now..sorry honey.
Here is the reason we are all smiles....Ali's goddaughter had a baby and she is so beautiful. She is 11 weeks old. We didn't get to spend as much time as we would have liked, but we did get pictures. I love sharing pics..
And one more story....After the devastation of our miscarriage, Ali's sister got a new dog for her son Miles. Her name is Callie and she is part yorkie and poodle. Well, this little creature has brought an overwhelming amount of comfort and joy to us both. God works in mysterious ways and we are forever grateful for that little puppy...you know I have a picture of her...she is soooooo cute!
