This isn’t the article I was going to write today, but when I opened my e-mail and saw this from my girlfriend, well … you decide.

Thanks and credit to: Weji Thomson of Merritt Island, Fl., good friend, great mom, and grand at passing on heartfelt messages.

image006 Huibers did work with his hands, modern tools and help from son Roy.

This just fills me up, touches me so much. Guess I’ll get out of my jammies now.

May Your Glass Always Be Half Full
