More Cold and More Flu

It's been cold and we have snow on the way! The forecast for the central part of Indiana is 6-10 inches of snow starting tomorrow morning. Ugh! But I will put up with the cold and snow if it raises the water tables. I do not look forward to a summer with a drought!

Son #5 became ill Monday evening. He was very tired during school classes on Monday, by the evening he had a fever. It was apparent Tuesday morning he had been hit by the flu bug. So over the last several days we now have a total of five, still including Son #5 with the flu! I pray that it does not hit us all! I feel like all I have done over the past couple of days is take temps, deliver medication, and send hubby to the store for 7-up and Gaterade!

May your spring weekend be wonderful no matter what the weekend holds!

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!
