A few....

Just read your blog Steve, and what a great day you must have had or rather evening!!!!! I have been to a few of those myself with the big Mexican families and years ago there were those kind of families! Sorry to say a lot of them, Mexican families, have seemed to "bit the dust", as so many American Catholic families have. I, too, enjoyed "Mercy Sunday here by myself and the great EWTN! I watched from about 1:30 on Sunday, had a bite to eat and then watched the Devotions until 11:P.M. I said so many chaplets, that pretty soon I forgot to count!!! What a great Sunday! The only thing that could have made it better was for a few more of the family to attend, but that's what you get when you have a large family and get really, really old! The family is scattered from here to there! Wish I could have had Lily and Alicia and Lorenzo there! I got my reward with Lily yesterday though! She was asleep when Alicia came over to take me to the Dr. and she slept quite awhile after we were there! My appt. was late getting started so she did wake up, ate and then started to smile at me and it was so great!!!! Thank God that I still have some family nearby!! I started to feel a little guilty about keeping Alicia out so long but she was so kind to me and of course when I got through with my appt. the baby had fallen asleep again and slept right through the ride home!!!! Just about in time for her next bottle, Alicia said. Getting back to the kind of a time that you had Steve, Sunday night, I feel good just thinking about it too. How was the food???
