Keith's graduation party is now pictures in the memory book. All the cleaning, cooking, planning, and worrying is done. It went off without a hitch. Well, almost.
It rained a little. Twice. The tent post punctured the sprinkler system (again - it happened at Joe's party too). The new screened gazebo that we used for the food tent was broken and had to be rigged to stay up. The industrial fan we brought home from the shop to keep the 89 degree/90 % humid air circulating killed a 2 foot wide circle of grass (oil or solvents or something).
But it's been a week now, and Greg and I are finally able to move without significant pain, the house is ours again, and most of the leftovers are gone. Keith is thrilled with his monetary gain but dreading the Thank You notes. The broken gazebo has been returned and replaced. The grass is growing back.
Now we get to go to other kids grad parties, take a check in a card, look at thier pictures and tropheys, eat some food and then say goodby. That's the fun part. That and commisserating with the parents of the grad and telling them that "this too shall pass". Unless, of course there is another kid(s). This was our last. When they graduate from college, they can take us out to dinner.

I am Anti - abortion. But be that as it may, this is not a post about abortion but a celebration of my son's life. Please keep to the subject.
I know this is very off subject, like the above comment from La Bona, but I read a comment that you posted on his website and I wanted to comment on that.
I am also a born again, bible believing Christian and I commend you for telling La Bona guy that he doesn't speak for God-- He doesn't-- and that is not God speaking to Him, it's Satan. But besides that, you said that God speaks through His Word- which He does and it's amazing to hear from Him that way! But God does NOT speak through the Quran to muslims. That is not our God. The God of the Bible is NOT the Allah of their scriptures. They are two different gods-- one True God, and one false one. The muslims have no Jesus, therefore no God. The Jews are condemned also if they do not believe in Jesus because He is the ONLY WAY to the Father.
I'm not trying to be a jerk :) I just want-- in the name of Jesus, and born again Christianity-- to educate people rightly and give them TRUTH which they are so greatly lacking. They're lost and if we are giving them half truths, we are doing them a great disservice. We want to rightly divide the Word of Truth and Be ready always to give a defense for the hope that lies within us. But we must do this right! :)
In love-- Heather
Heather,
Thank you for your comment. I believe, as you do, that Muslims and Jews are not saved. However, Jesus is known to both religions. Both view Him as a prophet, or great teacher. He is actually revered by both religions. But they do not accept Him as the Son of God and the Savior. So we must keep them in our prayers. Again, thank you.
