During our Braii (BBQ), at my host family’s house, last Saturday evening, they started playing several Vince Gill songs and then other country songs by older artists such as Chet Atkins. I really couldn’t believe these would be in their playlist. If you knew Steve, you knew how much he liked country music and particularly these artists. I shared this with my family at home and my niece called it a God wink letting me know Steve is with me in spirit. I love that, and I got more this week.
Our 31st wedding anniversary would have been last Wednesday, September 19 so Steve was on my mind even more than usual. My host family mom and I have been watching the sunset, so I went to the porch to join her. As I looked out for the sun, I noticed a small yellow rose bud on the plant in her yard. It is a miracle the plant can survive, let alone bloom, in this dry soil and afternoon heat. Yellow roses are my favorite and Steve gave them to me almost every anniversary. I call that another wink from Steve/God, they are both with me.
All for now, with all my love
Where's GranEllen?
