Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

We had a wonderful three days and two nights away, despite meltdowns, crying, the furnace being finicky and other facets of a family gathering.  We cooked, watched babies, endured Finding Dory repeats and enjoyed the ocean and park and aquarium.  The jellyfish were a favorite as were the big red octopus and the delicate tiny white octopus.  We sang Christmas carols.  We played Boggle and Uno.  Now we're back for the last couple of days of our daughter's and granddaughter's visit, and I will fly back with them to assist.  My daughter is much better, so the infusions are working, and she has been able to stop the painkillers completely.  I won't need to do much there except drive and cook and grocery shop.  Hey, that's my forte.  I feel more hopeful each day and am so pleased she has quality time in the new year.  Last night both my daughters, my granddaughter and I saw "Little Women" and we cried and sighed and agreed it was a terrific version of a book dear to all of us.  We came home fortified and firm in our believe in family love and support.
