Busy, Busy, Busy!

Where has the time gone?  Oh, I know...I've been sick!  Funny how time runs together when Momma is not on top of the game!  About a week ago I woke up really dizzy.  I was in bed almost all day on the first day.  I think I saw about 3 1/2 - 4 hours out of twenty-four!  The following days were a bit better, but I still have to be careful how I move my head.  I thought at first it was because the day before we FINALLY WENT TO THE CHILDREN'S MUSEUM!!!!!! {So much fun!!!}  I went on the carousel twice!  Okay, I stood next to out 6 year old as she "rode" the horse and then the tiger!  But now I'm not sure...maybe the "bubble" in my head is
off! ;-)    You can read more about our adventure by going to my daughter's blog.
I thought I would share a couple of pictures.  These two pictures are from Christmas Eve.   The first is of our seven daughters.  The second is the girls with the two sister-in-laws.  However, you marry into this family, you are FAMILY!  We only use the 'in-law' when people are trying to make the connection of who is who!   They had so much fun posing for the pictures!  It is loud when we all get together, but we have so much fun!
 
Momma and her girls!


Daughters x 9!



It is snowing again today!  We have about another 3 inches or so.  I think we are only suppose to get about four inches.  I told the scholars last night that if the public school calls off school because of the snow, I will give them a snow day!  I am pretty sure that I am safe on that call. :-) The public school almost NEVER has a snow day!

I will wait for another post to tell you about our trip to "Paris" for tea!  So many memories!

My Mother's Gentle Love

My Mother's Gentle Love by Ron Hamilton Who puts a band-aid on my knee? Who holds me close so tenderly? Who always sees the best in me? There’s no one like mother. Who always wipes my tears away? Who tells me I’ll be great some day? Who cares in such a gentle way? There’s no one like mother. My mother’s gentle love, my mother’s gentle love Has taught me of God’s tender care, and turned my eyes above. I’ll bless her all my days for all her gentle ways. Oh, how I thank my Lord above for my mother’s gentle love. Today is my mother's viewing, and tomorrow is her funeral.  The song above so much describes my mom.  She loved her four children so very much!  Before she had children, she was a nurse for "special care" babies~~"old" term for NICU.  Once she started having children she gave  up her career to stay at home and raise her own babies. Thanks, Mom! Thank you, Daddy, for allowing Mom to stay at home and raise us four children! My mother and her mo

Life....

Busy.  That seems to describe life in our home.  Just day to day busy.  Nothing really noteworthy.  Life moves on.   Let me think, since I last posted.... well, let me back up to about a month before my last post.  Daughter #6 got married in October of 2022...today Son #7 got married.  So, I have gained another son and another daughter! Our youngest graduated from high school in May and our oldest grandchild graduated the following day!  From our oldest child to our youngest, we have 33 years of education. (I'm tired just thinking about it!!) Still only 13 grandchildren.  Hubby is still in education.  I keep things going on the home front.  I help out the families where and when needed.  I still make cards for the card ministry that I have been doing for 19 years.  I still crochet.   That about sums up life at this point.  Have a wonderful day!

Remembering Mom

  Eleven years ago, today, my mom entered the gates of heaven.   My heart still breaks, hurts, and grieves.  But I know I will see her one day.  It seems like it has been a lifetime.  My youngest was only 6 1/2, now she is 17 1/2, a senior in high school and trying to choose between two colleges.  My oldest was 26 with young children and now is 37 and his crew is growing up too quickly!   My oldest grandchild was 6 and now is 17 and a senior in high school.  My youngest grandchild was only 6 weeks old and now is eleven.  Eight of my thirteen grandchildren have been born since that day.    Mom Mom's Viewing My children, taken about 6 weeks before  Mom died. I miss you, Mom!
