Cave Man, Cave Time

What a Cutie! I never get tired of looking at that face......good thing after 30 years of marriage! This is my chubby hubby in his "den". It's actually the guest room\office but certainly one of his favorite habitats. He likes to hibernate in there or our bedroom with a good book. He calls it "Cave Time". Hmm....does that make him a Cave Man?

He gave up his weekend for me . We went to see my mom. It's the only weekend we will have off for the next four weeks. I told him I would drive up there by my self ( cue martyr music and violins) but he knows how I hate to drive by myself. What a good guy! I'm really trying to be a better daughter and see my mom at least once a month now that we are only 4 hours away.

Speaking of Mom. I asked her if she wanted some company this last weekend and that we were coming to see her. I asked her not to cook all my favorite foods and especially not desserts. Did she listen? Of course not. She made all my favorites and even sent me home with an apple cake! I told her I would probably take it to the mission and let "my guys" eat it but she insisted I take it. "My Guys" told me to mind my own business and if my momma wanted to send them a cake they certainly were willing to eat it! What a sacrifice on their part!

Charlie and I read a biography on Mother Teresa. I was really impressed by her deep commitment to Christ even as a small child. She talks about the value of silence and the its importance to hear God speak. I'm hardly ever quiet. That's a problem!
