later on country style steak day

well i took the meal over to my parents --as i walked in the kitchen i saw my mother had the table set for 4--she was convinced we were there for her to make dinner for us ( although she hadn't prepared anything ). my father shook his head, he said he tried to tell her we were bringing dinner to them --enough for them and enough for another night-- i told her if she felt like it next week i would make dinner here if she would come -- she said she would-- we'll see--
when my father left the den for a moment , my mother motioned for me to come look out the window and see if i saw the red lights through the trees--daddy entered the room and said --that mother was just seeing things-- i wasn't so sure--don't know why--i preceded to sit exactly in the position she told me to and sure enough i saw what could have been ( from a distance ) red lights-- i gently told her it was a crepe myrtle tree--she seemed relieved

my husband daughter and i went to target --got coffee and sweets--and robyn found a dress marked doen to $4.50--we stopped by a couple of more stores--came home and had a nice dinner-- i had made double chicken the night before, so robyn and my husband frank made lima beans and mac and cheese while i rested--it's raining now --and i pray both my grown sons get home safely from work--God bless my whole family and the whole world.

    This brought tears to my eyes.
