Ace of Hearts

Right off the bat, I want to apologize for writing a short post today. See my son, Ace works out of town. His schedule is usually two weeks of rigorous work and being on call 24/7. This is in Wyoming on an oil rig. To make ends meet, he takes any overtime that's offered. This is hard on his family, who don't get enough together time. Also when he's home we make plans for me to visit a couple times. I need my Ace-fix! This month he will only be home for four days, so I'm spending whatever time allotted me with my wonderful son and watching his children for him other times. This way he and Michelle can have a tiny bit of alone time.

This is my lame attempt at a segway back to Ace...

The other day Peg pointed out that I never told you what happened to him after his release from lock-up. Well, when he was freed from his confinement, he was an 18 years old adult. He was extremely angry at me and moved to Idaho to live with his dad. Ace did not talk to me for three years and I had no contact with him or his father.

BUT...years later, after his temper cooled down, I received MY son back, safe and sound.

Praise You God for fulfilling your wonderful promise and giving me the awesome man named Asab Allen Bruce as a friend and confidant!

So he got up and went to his father.
"But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.

Luke 15:20


I am blessed
