Enough for Today

Jeremy loses hours at work......Kellie begins to pick up more hours....out of town as a traveling nurse.....Erin grows and grows weary in her first year in the classroom....and life hurts....it disappoints...it makes us angry & afraid.

Life changes constantly, some things expected some things not. The unexpected can just stop us in our tracks. Cause us to be immobile; to wonder what's to come.

And then life changes and we realize the constants.

*the love & trust of young ones; that don't know how we provide for them, where we will be taking them that day or what new friends they will meet....but they know it's all okay...in fact even great because mom and dad always take care of them!*

**that we can't remember one time in the past when our Heavenly Father didn't provide for us.**

***that we have a surrounding of family & friends***

****and now fear turns to hope and hope grows courage.****


Just enough for today.


And that's all we need.

Fun in the Sun

This weekend is beautiful; warm and so far NOT windy!
The pics here were taken Last weekend; when the sun was warm and the wind was Fierce!!!!

Here's to many more sunny Kansas days with the grandbabies!

Grandson...growing up!

While at Kellie's yesterday I witnessed, what i thought to be an amazing accomplishment by my 2 1/2 year old grandson!

He has decided as of late he needs no ones help going potty and he just does it all on his own!

Suddenly he jumps up, runs into bathroom, lifts the lid, pees, puts the lid down, quietly with out banging...that really amazed me.
So I said: "Liam do you need Grandma's help to wash your hands."
He said: "No."

I figured he was skipping the hand washing.
So I say to Kellie...maybe we should get him some hand sanitizer.

No need....he walked to his bedroom, carried his little chair to the sink...turned on the Hot and Cold waited until it felt just right to him and THOROUGHLY washed his hands! He dried them off, put his chair back in his room and went back to playing!

So....any of you out there needing potty training advice for boys; I would suggest asking Kellie or Jeremy...or maybe just ask Liam!

Grandbabies in the Library!

Liam and Nora came to my library Saturday. (a couple "big" kids came along too!) Liam loves playing there. With all the animals, my butterfly, dragonfly and ship kites. His new word this past Saturday was dragonfly!

Mariah was with me and it was only the 2nd time she had seen Nora. Nora loved her, laughing and smiling the whole time Mariah was holding her!
