place here. That is so good. So thankful you are doing better as I never

forgot your plea for prayer one Sunday morning not long ago. I have prayed

for you as it seemed I felt your pain that morning. God IS indeed SO GOOD!

I also am a mother (6 adult children) and a grandmother (19, will be 20 in

March. Another boy which will make 15 grandsons and 5 granddaughters.)


Being the eldest daughter of eleven siblings (lost our first brother in Sept.),

you might think I would be tired of children, especially babies, but that is

not the case. With each newborn our love just grows to cover that little

one. Children are God's heritage. Jesus said of little children, "of such is the

kingdom of God". He also said that "Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom

of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein". The Heavenly Father

loves little children. The Father (Spirit, Deity) loved His children, creation)

through Jesus and now He loves them through us, His people.


Sis. Adra, didn't mean to say so much but....did, Anyway, God bless you

real good and your family.


Oh, one more thing.......

Yes, you are wise to consult your LORD before making important decisions.

There were times through the years it seemed a change would have been

good but could never find a place to do so. Now almost 50 yrs. later, my

husband of 48 yrs. and I are still here....with five of our six adult children

and their original spouses, and 15 of our grandchildren. One son and spouse

and their four children go to an apostolic church near their home about

15 miles away in another city. His business is in our city. Yes, I am so glad

we stayed put and our roots grew way down deep toward the Rock.

Blessings,

Sis your posts are always so wonderful, sweet, and a blessing thank you for being a part of Gabby's.

Miss ya Brother.....you don't come to gabbys like you used to and we have no one to pick on....

It has been an interesting year-a busy one as well.
My Christmas was good. The kids had fun and were as wound up like a tight spring!
Mom & Ryan and Alanna are sick. I am going to a dinner to celebrate my cousins
60th birthday & his recent retirement.

I wished him a happy "65th" birthday!
He screamed what????? I am "60!"

I said, "when you get old the first thing to go is your hearing!

We spent the entire afternoon/evening in the clinic & pharmacy.

Hubby has bronchitis.

Michael has ear infections in both ears.

My ear infection that I was treated for over a week ago isn't cleared up and I now have yet another severe sinus infection.

I'm so sick of being sick!

Hi gals and Brad (oops, I mean Ron)! We have spent two days rearranging nearly all the rooms in our house. We turned my daughter's old room into Guest Room #1 with a king size bed. We turned my son's old room into Guest Room #2 - both upstairs. We moved the twin bed into the loft with the sofa and loveseat and it can be an optional overflow Guest Room #3, if needed.

We took the couch from our bedroom and moved it into the former Guest Room #1 (downstairs) and I now have my very own "girl room" next to Eddie's "man room". I get to have a comfortable place to read, plus a huge TV, plus a place to have my sewing machine out and my laptop. It will be my little haven. Now I'm glad that the house didn't sell!!! Having all these rooms has turned out to be a blessing.

I rarely watch TV, but I just inherited the big screen, because Eddie just bought a big new HD flat screen for the other room. BUT.....I have a whole slew of old videos that I want to see on the big screen. They are of old Christmas programs, special services, etc. when my kids were small. I will probably just sit in that "girl room" and cry!!! Good tears though.
