Life and blessings

Life has been so hectic lately that I haven't blogged in awhile. It's a good thing Chris has had a lot to say, otherwise we might lose our loyal readership.

I just want to post a picture of my uncle Jess tonight because our family has been blessed with him and a miracle. On Saturday, he was the victim of an act of violence that caused him to have emergency head surgery. I still am shocked to even say it. I am so happy to report that he's doesn't have any long term damage and is doing better everyday. He's a strong man and I wouldn't expect anything less.

My mom and my uncle Jess are siblings, but I really think they are like best friends. My mom's loves to hear the phone ring in the morning and my uncle say "Your coffee smells good. I'm coming over to have some." Naturally, this makes me very close to him and a very hard time for me to be far away. I am trying something very "unnatural" for me and focus on the blessings rather than the incident.

P.S. The police apprehended the perpetrator on Saturday.
