I've got the joy, joy, joy, joy down in my heart...

Today was gray and gloomy outside but inside it was a great day. I think I am turning Papa into an early morning person. He was ready to get up at 7:15 AM, that is, until he found out it was 7:15, then he decided to sleep until 8:00. He sat up at 8:00 and ate a great breakfast, had his bath and went in to watch Regis & Kelly. He stayed up till after lunch, when he decided to take a nap. My dryer went on the blink and while I was drying clothes at my sister's and Larry was taking his siesta in the next room, Kenny decided to get up, put himself in the wheelchair and was "pedaling" his way back into the Carolina room when I caught him. Need I say more? He is coming along!

The only tough part of the day was when he decided that he would go to bed at 6:30 PM. Nothing we said would dissuade him. Now, at almost 1:00 AM he is awake and wondering if I forgot to give him his pills. I just told him to go to sleep and let me worry about the medicine. I have a feeling that this will be a sleepless night for me because when he goes to bed so early, he really doesn't sleep well and I think he likes company...me.

So many of you have written us or called us to wish us well this Easter. Thank you all so much. Your friendships are treasured more than you can imagine. God has richly blessed us with many caring friends; without you all, we would never have been able to carry on as we have. I believe that He sends his angels to care for us and many times they come in the guise of friends.

God bless all of you.
