Coffee With a Friend

Tuesday, December 4

 

I never cease to be amazed by a beautiful sunrise.

 

 

They are new every morning…

 

 

…and change by the moment.

 

 

If you look away, you can miss new beauty.

 

 

As you can see, by the time my good friend Cookie came at 10:00 a.m. the sun was bright and high in the sky.

Cookie is not her real name – it’s Emma Jean – but I learned to know her as Cookie, about forty-five years ago, so it’s difficult to call her Emma Jean.

 

 

She planned to come a few days after my surgery – and bring something to go with coffee – but that didn’t work out. Today she brought this delicious pumpkin roll.

 

 

We had a delightful two hours, talking about many things – ranging from family to our faith in the Lord.

 

 

A Carolina Wren came to visit shortly after Cookie left.

Then it was time to put the coffee things away and get to my office to set up a newsletter for TFC staff friends – Sam & Alice Rittenhouse.

It was a good day!
