Thanks to my wonderful hubby who stayed home with the big kids, Teresa & I enjoyed an evening out with the Marians. It was so much fun! Tasty food, pleasant conversation, & joyful friends.
Sr. Karen Marie & I were reminiscing good old times. It will be 10 years since our trip to Europe come this summer; that means 10 years since she entered, too. Seeing Pope JPII, praying before incorrupt saints, singing "Father Abraham" as we wore our crazy hats getting drenched in the gardens of Versailles, speedy car rides when the hatch of our rental car flipped open... so many memories that are ingrained in my mind forever.
Teresa was a big hit, of course. I can't count how many times I heard, "Could I hold her, please?" She was pretty happy for all of them... except Sr. Ann Marie... I think she pinched her. Once a crazy Zierke, always a crazy Zierke. ; ) Sr. Helen, whose birth name was Teresa, was her biggest fan. We practically had to pry her out of her arms! So much love to share. What a gift!
