Feburary 12, 2010



How beautiful the wide expanse of  'white' lawn between my trailer and Rebecca's home!  The smoke from the chimney disappears into the grey skies.  This is our third snow this year!  North Texas received their fair share this time; somewhere around ten inches.  One can only hope this is the last of it for this season!  But, then again, it is early yet.

Lee called me this morning from Lanny's phone. Lanny stopped by with his bus to have breakfast with them, before continuing his trek to Oklahoma. He hopes to be here tomorrow evening. Lee talked excitedly a few moments, then said, "Mama, it is hard to do this (Wii) and talk on the phone."

Today, is Ronny McKnight's birthday. He is 62 years old. How quickly time seems to pass. As we look backward, it is like the chimney smoke that quickly drifts into the grey sky. A scent left for a short moment then, gone.
