Good evening, everyone. It's Mom here, stopping by to greet you in between checking on Michael Jr's wedding jacket. :)
The wedding and shower preparations are underway in a whirl of planning and activity. We have two bridesmaid's dresses to cut out and make , one to finish, the details on the rehearsal dinner to get together, decisions on several things to finalize, and 5 delightful cuties to love on every day ( my 5 younger boys, ages 11-3.) My Grand Aunt Betty is doing much better after her light stroke, Andrew's broken arm is being well taken care of by Dr. Harris, here in Moultrie, and my Mom and Dad are doing well, albeit a bit tired . When life and sin and weariness and hurt feelings and discouragement show up , we talk and pray and stand by God's grace. Michael B. , the patriarch of the Morton clan, encourages us to greet each other in the morning and to use good manners with each other, here in the family and I think that goes a long way to "making spirits bright" LOL ( Not that we have this down perfectly , by any means- I heard - and dealt with - a discussion about some cowboys this morning - but we're headed in that direction.)
Katie and Alan and their preborn wee one are doing great. I think Katie is feeling much better, though not always exactly well. She had a visitor stop by today - a young lady who is a life-long friend, Kristina Ogren, from Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Kristina was born one day before Katie and they have been dear friends all their lives.
Happy Birthday , Alan, new dad and husband, brother and son. We love you very much. (July 31).
Adeline is spending the week with the Smith family , to help with wedding prep. We miss our Addie May, but we know she is having fun and being her usual helpful self.
Did I say that Dorothy just got back from a wonderful trip with the Davis family from Valdosta? They went to the History conference in Virginia sponsored by Vision Forum. The Sanders family took Dorothy to Michigan with them the following week, so we were bereft of our Dorothy for 2 whole weeks.!!!!!
