Toronto blog entry #6
got back from Toronto two nights ago, but thought i'd finish summarizing the vacation. friday, after a major nap (yes, all us cousins were knocked out!), we headed out for a japanese bbq dinner - me, charlene, clarence, john and shirley. it was even more fun than the korean bbq that john, shirley and i went to last time because of all the color, plus being able to 'jeet jeet' the lemon juice, and marinate our food before grilling it. clarence was 'king of the grill' and charlene was pro at making various arrangements and being quick about it...hilarious! and i didn't force veggies or fish on john this time :p we ate until about 11, then headed to first markham place's tea for me (i think that's what it was called), where annette, jeanette, and laureen joined us for yummy drinks, chinese checkers and watching 'what not to wear'. loved that day!
saturday started off a bit slow, as the cousins had errands to tend to (washing cars etc.), so charlene and i walked around the neighborhood - exploring the $5 million house and the trail behind it, as well as a nearby playground. lunch, then clarence, charlene, john, shirley and i (the usual) walked around yorkdale mall. and finally, dinner with the family at harbour city. but that wasn't it for the evening by any means.
many of us ended up spending the remainder of the night in york central's emergency room, gathered together for family and waiting for an answer. i thank God for granting me the courage and opportunity to bring prayer into the equation and truly seek His strength, wisdom and peace for all involved in the situation. praise Him that the situation seems to have subsided and turned around in the past day or so...but i earnestly pray that recovered health is not the only outcome, but a greater awareness and appreciation of our powerful, loving Lord Jesus Christ and the role He had in allowing things to turn out the way they did.
