Shannon came this  morning and took Erin out as she usually does on Wed.  They went to Trader Joe’s to get “Orange Water” (sparkling orange flavored water).  But, they forgot to get the Joe’s Mac ‘n Cheese which Colleen had alerted Erin to.  I heard  laughter in Erin’s room around 4 pm.  It was big sister Colleen chatting with Erin.  Later, Colleen went to Trader Joe’s and came back with several packages of Trader Joe’s Mac ‘n Cheese for Erin.

When the cleaning ladies were here, they commented on the beautiful flowers on the table. I explained (as best I could in Spanish) that they were from Trader Joe’s.  Erin used to push Tommy in the stroller to Trader Joe’s in Davis.  So, a couple of times when Steve has been in TJ’s with the boys, the check out clerk recognized Tommy and sent flowers for Erin home with Steve.  This happened last Sat.

Today when Shannon and Erin were out, Clark and I went to a lunch at Sam’s Hofbrau with some 30 friends, many of whom I knew when I was single.  So, many of them watched Erin growing up and asked about her.  Thanks to all of them who are praying for Erin. The lunch was organized by Lucy and Mack White, so the two Lucys in my life are Lucy White and Lucy Brown, who comments frequently on the blog.
