I am in love...

Sloan is out of town on business tonight. There was a thunderstorm so the dog went berserk. I blessed out the dog. More than once.

But Henry clapped for me after I sang him "Big Rock Candy Mountain" as I was putting him to sleep. And as I began to sing "Amazing Grace," he rested his head on my shoulder, snuggled up closer, and played with my hair. By the third verse, the one that pretty much sums up my life, he was singing along with me. (No, he doesn't know the words--just sorting of mouthing the rhythm.)

Through many dangers, toils, and snares, I have already come;
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
