This past Thursday Betsy and I went to Hendersonville to see and help out my parents. Mom and Dad are doing about as well as can be expected. We were able to help them with some odd jobs around the house and with their grocery shopping. They were in pretty good spirits, which is always encouraging.
An added bonus for the day was that we were able to have lunch with my daughter and her husband. They were in Nashville on business and made time to have lunch with us in Hendersonville. We had a delicious lunch of seafood and lots of nice conversation. So in spite of the long drive to Hendersonville and back it was a wonderful day.

What an adorable couple!! You must be very proud of them both! Do they both work, what do they do? You just KNEW this was coming, didn’t you, George! It looks like she is a fan of Dr. Seuss! Me, too!

I’m glad that your parents are still doing OK. It is hard to watch parents grow old and not be closer to them. I’m glad you had a nice family visit.

I bet that was wonderful to see your daughter…I am learning what it is to have a kid all the way across the country. I am so thankful for the instant communication we have these days.
