The Wonder Report: May 29, 2021
Unexpected Gatherings
Good morning, friends. Yes, I’m sending this on Saturday morning rather than Friday evenings with apologies to those who were specifically looking for it.
As you know, we’ve been talking about gatherings for the past month, and for this week’s Wonder Report, I had a great culmination planned. But then things started piling up, gatherings both expected and unexpected that together pulled life off course: the community gathered for the first outdoor concert at the new park in town, family gathered around a birthday cake singing, nurses gathered over Mom’s hospital bed caring for her as I watched helplessly, loved ones gathered around their respective computers and smart phones watching a live video of our youngest son being sworn in as a U.S. Marine Corps enlistee, and the dogs gathering around me while I curled up in the recliner for a whole day from the side effects of a shingles vaccine.
All that to say, life didn’t go as planned this week, and neither did The Wonder Report. Hopefully, I’ll be back as usual next week with the big wrap-up to our gatherings theme and some fun announcements as we kick off summer. Until then, have a great week!
