Short Break

I'm back from taking a small blogging break that I didn't mention before taking. Sorry! My cousin passed away in Houston last Tuesday, and we decided that I would go and the girls rode with me. God blessed us to have a really good trip, despite the circumstances of our going. I was able to see relatives that I hadn't seen in years and some for the first time. That was really great. I'm going to miss my cousin's over the phone speeches about life that he would give whenever I talked to him. I always got off the phone with a big smile on my face, because he was humorous and really sweet and meant well, even if his speeches didn't make a whole lot of sense! lol Since I'm an only child and was born late into my parents lives, my first cousins are all a lot older than me. Wayne was more like a big brother than a cousin, so he will really be missed. Please keep his son and daughter in prayer, and all the grandchildren (12, plus 2 great-grands), and the entire Smith clan.
