Friday,September 19th found six of us coming together at Edisto, in some very blustery weather, but weather that looked like it was going to turn out nice,and sunny in the end! After all the rain and snow we've had, we were glad too!
Ramelle,and Charlotte met Becky at Main's Market on Friday for lunch,and enjoyed the shrimp salad and the Tarragon Chicken Wrap along with Miss Mary.Later that afternoon,Jenn and Maybelle rolled in and we feasted on Ramelle's Chicken Pot Pie.
Sarhi came in after supper and we sat around sharing everything until the late hours! Each lady opened their pillowcases from Mar and their gifties on the table.
The next"late" morning,we indulged in Sean's Blueberry Buckle,and Jenn's Sausage Casserole.Karen drove down from Columbia and we drove out to Botony Bay,where Bess took us on a tour! We wrote the names of our children in the sand, and walked forever on the most pristine piece of beach, ever!We finished with a drive around the rest of the Bay area, and then home,to some of Sarhi's authentic Cuban Sandwiches;fruit,and that absolutely wonderful dark Chocolate Torte!
(Thanks Jo Massey)Afterwards Karen drove home and we watched a Chonda Pierce DVD,and some of the Olympics.Jenn and Sarhi acted like nuts,but then Mom's who have given a child back to God have permission to act that way!
We heal in most unusual ways, hut we heal,with God's help!
These weekends are a time together that are so helpful and meaningful.A time where God brings healing to the broken hearts of some hurting Mom's who still miss their children....
