From a land...far, far away

Well, only about 1200 miles BUT we are near St. Louis and posting from Aunt Becky's computer.

I had a FANTASTIC day because:
1. I had chicken & dumplings for lunch
2. I'm with my spectacular immediate family
3. I'm with the super-loving extended Brown family
4. The grass is soft and there are lightning bugs
5. I got to see my neices whom I have not hugged in 1 1/2 years
6. I got to see Emma and Ella become fast friends, hugging and saying "I love you"
7. I got to meet 3-week old Noah and he is a dream!

This is just one of those days that was so great that I want to cry. Happy, blessed tears.

God is so good!
