Swimming with Whitney |
It was almost warm enough to swim outside today, almost. We opted for the indoor pool however, and Whitney came with us. She spent the night last night after coming to watch Max's Lightning game yesterday. Her mom is in LA, she flew down for work and stayed over with Shane. They haven't gone anywhere together without the kids since Connor was born last year. She told me today when she came to pick up Whitney, that she felt like a new woman. She slept all night without Connor waking her up, she said that he usually wakes up every hour as he can't breathe very well with his heart condition. Then she slept in and had breakfast in bed. How much fun would that be? Anyways, I am glad that she had an enjoyable time and that Whitney could come to stay with us. Markus always looks forward to her coming over and she never wants to leave when it is time to go home. We also went skating today, I was teaching some lessons, and then to laser tag and dinner. Morgen came with his friend Austin as well. A fun holiday, thanks to Martin Luther King, Jr. who had a dream that things would be different then they currently were.
Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can't ride you unless your back is bent.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
