Grateful For Findings
When my mom got up this morning, she seemed to be more confused than normal. After talking with her and letting some time pass, the confusion lingered. I wondered what this was. Was it from a new medication? Was it low sodium – because it was checked a couple weeks ago and was running on […]
Cousin Cuties
My mom’s sister has 2 young great grandchildren. So, they are my cousin’s grandchildren. Today, my mom and I saw the pictures and a video that my cousin shared from the 4th of July. The little girls were just the cutest. We watched the video of the youngest one over and over as she described […]
Babies and Babies
We always enjoy videos of babies and baby animals. It just makes a person smile and feel good. When our friend came over today, she shared a video of her 1 year old granddaughter in the wading pool during the 4th of July. She was splashing away and enjoying the toys in the water with […]
Glorious Adventure
My mom read today’s reflection from “Jesus Calling”, and I thought it was quite profound and encouraging. It said in part, “Draw near to Me with a thankful heart, aware that your cup is overflowing with blessings….You will never be in control of your circumstances, but you can relax and trust in My control.

Unexpected Family

He was pretty excited about it. I was proud of him for pursuing something he really wanted to do, enjoys doing, and is […]
The Point
For the past few weeks, I have been chatting with a friend whose husband became very ill from some food while they took a family vacation abroad. Unfortunately, things went from bad to worse and he passed away the other day. One thing she questioned was why God would take her husband? Why wouldn’t he […]
Parkinson’s Butterfly
At breakfast we asked my mom what she wanted to do on this beautiful day. She said she wanted to go to the park and see the Parkinson’s Butterfly. Last year, the daughter of a man with Parkinson’s disease created a butterfly piece of art that was auctioned off at the Rotary Club’s annual fundraiser. […]
Safely Here
My brother drove out for a visit and arrived today after 2 days of driving. The weather is always a factor and after our big hail storm the other day, we were a little more concerned. And the forecast called for potentially severe weather. At one point in the drive, my brother had to decide […]
