March 17, 2015---Michelle’s House in Loveland, Colorado


Happy St. Patrick’s Day.  Did you wear something green today?

I had a book on hold at the Library, so Bill took me to check it out.  He had an appointment to get the doors on the Honda fixed.  The dealer is in Fort Collins, so Bill took me to the hospital before he drove over there.

Meredith had an appointment with her heart specialist and it was at the same hospital where my heart doctor is.  In fact, we were even in the same exam room.  She got a good report.  All of her tests were as normal as her heart can be.

When Meredith and Michelle were born, Meredith had a defective heart valve.  When she was five days old, Bill and I took her to Denver to the University of Colorado Children's Hospital.  Not knowing if she would survive the trip, I held her as close as I could, not knowing if I would ever get to to hold her again.

Today, as I set there and listened to her doctor, I marveled at the last 47 years.  She is truly a miracle.  But all of our children have enriched our lives. 

We went to lunch at Red Robin.  The food was OK, but the service was pathetic.  We were there over an hour.  Next time, I think we will choose a different place.

Of course, when I got back to the MH, a nap was in order.  I was tuckered out!
