Sunday, a day of rest……kind of
Hi! I’ve been so busy that I haven’t kept up with my writing. Sorry. I do so appreciate your reading, and it makes me feel less alone in all of this. It’s Sunday and for some that mean a day of rest……for US , other than church, this morning we don’t have formal plans for […]
It’s been a blur, NOW, the work begins
Mom’s summary is at the bottom in Blue, if you want to by-pass my ramblings….. :o) Well, the past 5 weeks has been a blurrrrrrrr……. In those first moments, I guess there were choices to make.

A Good Night’s sleep! and more
Mom played more than an hour of bridge, yesterday with her friends, Toots, Barbara and Darrel. She did GREAT!! She was a little slower than usual, of course.

For reality sake and for the sake of anyone reading this who might be going through something similar…….I am NOT the Superwoman […]
Craig’s Dad and God’s endless generosity…..
Of course, we’ve been writing about my mom for the past month with prasies for our Father for the miracles that he’s worked in our lives. You might think that this would mean that we may have used up our allotment with Him………..But, He IS a very giving Lord and yesterday he proved to us […]

Headed for the rainbow!
Mom has been working so hard, and you have all been gracing us with your prayers for so many weeks. She can eat a lot of things and feeds herself. She laughs. She can walk, v e r y carefully. She can read and understand what she’s reading…..So, send her e-mails and cards. Our address […]
