Fall Colors

Today my sister and her husband decided they had enough working on their farm for a while and wanted to head out to enjoy the beautiful Fall season. I was glad that they asked if my other sister and I wanted to come along. The Fall color changing season is so short and the weather […]

A Girl With Leukemia

Tonight my sister and I were just getting ready to turn in for the night when the doorbell rang. We were both surprised to hear it so late at night. When we opened the door, there was a young girl and a woman standing there holding a container of sherbet. It was my sister’s neighbor. […]

Unexpected Cross and Love Locks

My sister who broke her leg started back to work part time this week. Luckily, she works from home most of the time, so she can remain as comfortable as possible and not worry about driving. However, she had a big meeting today in her office downtown, so we got up early to make the […]

Back At Home

After 6 weeks, it finally happened – we brought my sister to her house yesterday. Since she broke her leg and had surgery, she has been unable to put any weight on it all. So, she has been staying with my parents and I. Their house is a little easier to get around and such. […]

Granddaughter’s Baptism

Today another new little one joined the family of Christ – my granddaughter. I talked to my sons ahead of time to see if it would be possible to video chat during her Baptism in the church, and they said they would try. I got a call from my older grandson when they got to […]

Guardian Angels

I got up early this morning, ready to start my day with a walk. When I stepped outside, it was raining, so I went back in. I stretched my body out a bit and decided to spend time doing some praying and reading. I found the Mass readings for the day and realized it is […]

God’s Care

My dad called early this morning with the great news that he was being released from the hospital. When my mom and I arrived, we passed by the chapel. My mom had not been there before, so we went in and spent a few minutes. We included intercessions to St. Therese of Lisieux, as it […]

And Exhale

Today was the day my dad had his pacemaker implanted. It was an early morning as we made our way to the hospital in the dark. My mom stayed at the house with my sister. My dad was one of the first to have a procedure done, along with 2 other men. They checked in […]

Prepared

My dad will be having surgery tomorrow to have a pacemaker implanted. He scheduled it a couple of weeks ago when it was discovered that his heart rate was dropping periodically. He decided to wait until things settled a little – his broken thumb would be well into the healing process and my sister who […]
