Rodeo Farewell

I really wanted that milk punch. My husband got me two large ones today, and for free.

I definitely didn’t need that much. But I truly enjoyed every bit of them.

Thank you, God. Thank you, my husband. Thank you, rodeo, and goodbye!

We had a good end to the rodeo today. It was hot and humid and muggy and super Houston-y. My husband and I argued amidst the overwhelming carnival nonsense. We sorted it out and had a great time. I’m so glad we went and hung out at our team’s headquarters, both yesterday and today. I am grateful, especially, to my mom for being such a sport and for being so helpful even despite her having been so sick this past week and still being in recovery mode. The rodeo was very different for us three this year, my mom and my husband and me. But it was still good, and I am grateful for the good time had.

Thank you, Lord. Please, heal our family in all ways in this life. Make us well, please, and keep us safe, that we pursue and fulfill your will together and individually. Thank you for this family and for your love. In your name, I pray. Amen.

P.S. I looked trendy again today. But no one at all seemed to notice that I was wearing the same outfit as yesterday. My mom was clearly still recovering from having been sick, because she didn’t say a word, though she normally would have almost immediately upon seeing me. So, that was silly to realize only just now(!), but quite fun and satisfying. Thanks for that, too, Lord! Amen!
