Prayed For Energy
I asked my mom how she found God today. She said she prayed for more energy and to feel better. She said God answered her prayer. When she played the piano today, she said the piece she is practicing to play with her friend is really coming along now. She also did all her exercises. […]
Boys’ Birthday
My older son flew out this weekend to celebrate his and my younger son’s birthdays. They came over this evening for a socially distant visit. They are 12 years apart in age, so didn’t spend their childhood or youth together. I love seeing them together now as adults. It’s funny that their voices, the things […]
New Young Saint
Today I read an article about the new saint Carlo Acutis. He was a young man when he encountered Jesus in the Eucharist. This led him to compile a website documenting Eucharistic miracles around the world. Being somewhat of a computer wizard, Carlo did this when social media was in it’s infancy. He was only […]
Wind-Scarred Pears
We got our monthly subscription of Harry & David fruit today that my brother sent to my mom. It was wonderful box of pears. They are usually beautiful in appearance, but these had some black scratchy marks on them. My dad found a note that was included. He, my mom, and I got all choked […]
Beauty in Confusion
The weather here has been so warm for such a long time. We were surprised the other day when we saw that one of the irises had a long budding stem on it. However, it was supposed to freeze that night. So we decided to cut it off and bring it in the house. We […]
Pep Talk
My dad had an appointment with his neurologist today. The doctor talked with him, watched him walk, and asked me some questions. Even though my dad struggles with his short term memory, the doctor said that he looks really good. He said he understands that it is frustrating for my dad, but reassured him that […]
Yes He Cares
When I was out and about today, I passed a large wooden fence that faced the street. It had words written in different colors of chalk that read, “Yes, He Cares.” My heart welled up. Message received. I Found God today in a simple, profound message.
Mid Pandemic Quarantine Surprise
We got a “mid-pandemic-quarantine” surprise package from my brother yesterday. It was a blu-ray player and some movies. My dad and I worked on getting it set up today. When we came to the place where we weren’t sure what to do next, my dad called my brother on Facetime. He was able to walk […]
Girls Nail Party
Today was girls day. A few months ago, my daughter in law hosted a party where you could purchase Color Street press on nail polish. I bought a few sets and planned on getting together with my sisters to put them on. Since then, there has been a lot going on. One sister was getting […]
House Hunting
My sister came to visit for a couple days. She had an eye doctor appointment in this city today and thought it would be nice to enjoy some extra time here. It was perfect timing as my son has started to look for houses to buy. Because my sister was here, I was able to […]
