April 11th...a day in history

Some dates seem so familiar, and then it hits you....
April 11, 1993 (Easter morning, no less) - nephew Jason is transported from Sacramento (in critical condition) to San Francisco (where they say "we've been waiting for you!")  Has gone on to serve a mission, earn his Master's degree, get married and is still the life of any party!
 April 11, 1995 - Dad has a 6-way by-pass with no promises from the doc - we were blessed with 15 more wonderful years
April 11, 2011 - Pop has back surgery - success!  and today is sitting up laughing, visiting and ready to go!
So blessed are we on April 11th - I wonder what the future April's will bring!

and in case I don't catch you before you're south of the border...have the best time in Cabo! I'm waiting to open my little graduation card 'til the big day. kind of wish I were spending it in Cabo instead :) travel safe!
