@VolNExile, I remember crocuses peaking up out of the thin dusting of snow in the yards of Laurel Ave during the '70s.

They’ve always been the first bulb to bloom for me. Usually by Valentines Day, so they’re right on time. February is such a dreary month. It’s things like croon crocus bloom that get me through!

Edit: Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, iPhone!

@VolNExile, during my Camino in Spain, we rode up above the clouds to a mountain top bald covered in crocuses. It was stunning. The tiny little town just off the crest opposite the route we rode had a cafe which served the best cafe con leche that I had during the entire trip. My wife bought postcards there which we filled out and posted in Portomarin.

After I asked my daughter in law what color for nursery and theme, it’s time to go shopping for little people stuff. This time I don’t mind shopping, and I’m stoked to be able to call my grandson, Liam Patrick. I knew my son was an oddity and a chip off the ole she block.

I sincerely believe there's some divine purpose for this trip, and not just help for Tiffany. She texted me before I left work qnd told me to hurry because we were gonna have company at 8. Some friends we haven't seen in q couple of years had messaged her, and said they wanted to stop by real quick. He said he had been praying for us, and felt like doing a little something to help. He webt home and told his wife, and she said she had felt the same all day. They gave us $200, which will pay completely for a rental car, and have money left. It's just amazing, plane, hotel, car, and even food basically all completely taken care of. I mean we could've paid it all, but are thankful for the blessing. It may sound silly, but I just feel like God is taking any burden, even financially, out of the whole thing, so somehow we can be some kind of blessing in some way to somebody during this trip.

I agree with Gordy, who gives a flip what souce and TFG think? Forget them. Do what you need to do and have some fun too.

I'll continue my prayers for your family, especially her.

Two birds by one stone, love it. A way for you to fortify your faith to show he is with you and be the lantern for those that need it. I’ve always found that if God has a path for us, he will clear it for us.
