Last Saturday Night my sweetheart was surprised by a Birthday Party to remember. The outpouring of love was INCREDIBLE! People from far and near were present at 2 Scoops Ice Cream, Soup and Sandwich Shoppe, and many, many others sent cards and letters affirming that man of mine as important and beneficial to them. Ron was quite surprised as we arrived to a banner, balloons and bumper to bumper warm bodies at the Shoppe.
He was given a photo album of pictures from ministry and a scrapbook of written sentiments and cards from folk everywhere. A soft and fluffy doggie bed and multiple toys for little Miss Rockey - a mini schnauzer puppy - when she comes (in 3 weeks) And the big gift, given from many who love him, is the puppy.
The grandest gift of all however, was a surprise visit from our daughter who lives in Florida. Both our girls, Sara and Naomi pulled off that surprise affirmation of their love for their father. They surprised us both!
I ask you - is there anything more important in life than our relationships? If you think there is, you might want to compare notes with Ron, 'cuz he's sure that these relationships are of greatest importance. First God, then family and precious friends.
We are both still reeling from the granduer of it all, and the great outpouring of love, and oh, the precious memories!
