Great aunts...

You know what great aunts do. They get a box of candy in the mail, then sell it so their wonderful, handsome, awesome, brilliant eldest nephew can raise money to go to DC with his class.

I’ve never had to sell anything as an adult. It was interesting experience. Thank God for great co-workers who bought candy, or donated it to other, who gave a few extra bucks. I sold candy yesterday to my office, then today I sold to other friends in the building and bam I was finished. God is good.

I can’t believe my Mijo is old enough to go on a school trip. A school trip without his family. He’s never been away on a trip without one of us. Yes at his age 13, I had spent a few nights away from my mom on school trips. But he’s going to be in another part of the country away from his mom and siblings. On the other side of the States from us.

Please remember him in your prayers. That he and his classmates and the chaperones will have a safe trip there and back to Louisiana and while they are in DC. That they will have a good time and learn a little somethin’ somethin’ about our awesome Nation’s capital.
