Happy Faces

I haven't posted since Monday and wonder how much longer I will continue doing this blog.
It's been a busy week with our friends Mark and Iliana stopping by on Tuesday night, the Little League game Wednesday night, Shawn coming home Thursday night and the first Dubuque ... And All That Jazz last night.
It was during All That Jazz that I felt God's presence as one of my favorite live bands The Salsa Band performed.
At one point, three young women strolled to the edge of an open area for dancing. Most people nearby were standing or sitting and watching the band perform, but a few people and several children danced. The three women slowly began to sway to the music and had huge smiles on their faces. They were a bit self-conscious, but gave in to their urges and visibly enjoyed themselves.
After that, I began paying attention to the many other smiles in the large crowd and it made me think of heaven and good things.
With my back/leg problems slowly getting worse and my continued abnormal sleeping patterns, it was a welcome moment of happiness.
