As the days go by

It's been a busy couple of weeks.  My Mom has been diagnosed with Alzeimers and is currently in the hospital.  I can't believe that she has already been there almost two weeks.  It's difficult to have a loved one there with COVID as it makes visiting very difficult.  She has been in the respiratory floor for the past 2 weeks and has just been moved to the Specialized Seniors Care floor.  I ask for your prayers for our Mom and the family as we strive to make the best decisions for her well being and for improvement in our Mothers overall health. We trust that God will lead us in caring for her (His will be done). Through all of this, she has remained the fun loving Mom that we all enjoy and love spending time with.






After our visits to Barrie, Ralph and I have spent some time in the Sunflower Fields in Cookstown.  Oh how I love the sight of a field full of bloom.  It makes my heart sing.   As I strolled through the path in the gardens I couldn't help but hum some hymns that the Lord placed on my heart.  This is my happy place and I was able to let go of the stress of whats going on and to quietly sing praises our Lord.  We've been here twice in the past two weeks.  Thank you Ralph for taking me even though you sat patiently in the truck while I wandered around.  I was happy that you were able to enjoy the sunset and helped me as well with setting up some of the compositions.  






We also spent a couple of days at John and Grace's.  What a wonderful time we had.  We golfed twice and I can't remember laughing as much as we did.  The golf was fun but the friendship was even better.  We experienced the most amazing sunset and sunrises.  It certainly was beautiful.  




Praise God from whom all blessings flow.  Praise Him all creatures here below.  Praise Him above ye heavenly hosts.  Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.  Amen.
