More to Learn
After my mom played the piano today, my dad encouraged her and told her how much he loved to hear her picking up and working through a new piece. My mom took a few minutes and reminisced about her last piano teacher. She started lessons with her after playing for about 40 years. Yet, she […]
Humbled By His Faithfulness
We had another wonderful day visiting with my dad’s cousin and his wife today. It had been over 20 years since I had seen them, so along with talking ancestry, we got caught up on life events. As I shared stories of my past several years, I realized – again – how God has led […]
No Mistakes
At church this morning, the priest gave us several examples of people who were trying to make a specific product, but made a “mistake” and ended up making something very different, by very wonderful. I thought of my sister’s coffee toffee. She started with a certain recipe, read the measurements incorrectly for some of the […]
Appendix Out
My son who lives out east called me early this morning, which is unusual – especially during the work week. He told me that he had been having severe pains in his abdomen. He said he was pretty sure it was appendicitis. He went to the local emergicare and had a catscan that confirmed his […]
Food Provided
This evening as I was cooking dinner, I noticed some leftover sandwiches from the weekend. I didn’t realize they were in there. I figured they would be good for tomorrow’s lunch. However, as I went to take the casserole out of the oven, it slipped out of my hands and landed face down on the […]
Going Into the World
I met a woman at a prayer group a couple of months ago and we have stayed in touch every now and again. She was on my mind today, so I sent her a message and told her I was praying for her. She said that she and her husband made the decision to move […]
Mom’s Choice
Today was my mom’s choice to celebrate Mother’s Day. After church, my son and I made her meal of choice – sloppy joes, coleslaw, baked beans, and fruit salad. To be honest, I have not made sloppy joes in years as I am pretty much obsessed with cooking healthy. I have to say, it was […]
Promising Words
This evening I went to a training session for people who are working with kids who are in foster care. I have been part of a group of adults who get together with the high school youth to be another source of support to them. The training session was on brain development. The presenter talked […]
Grateful Intern
I took my mom to physical therapy today. She has been to this particular place a couple of times before and she always improves. The therapists are upbeat and enjoy their work, but today there seemed to be an overabundance of positive energy. The head therapist usually has an intern with her as she does […]
Perfect Morning Prayer
This morning I got on my phone to see what was happening in the world. The EWTN post popped up, which I seem to get sporadically. When I do see them, it is a little video encouraging prayer for a specific intercession. Today’s prayer was for people with Parkinson’s and their caregivers. I clicked on […]
