Are there really any bad things when you know God controls it all? Well, as it would happen, Darby started feeling terrible yesterday. Before the end of the evening she was terribly sick to her tummy and is still running a slight temperature. Tonight, Darby is eating an apple telling me over and over, “I threwed up”. Meredith, is not…

Community Fellowship Reminder- September 10th
We would love to have you! Message me for details.
fall decorating
I’ve been noticing a few (only a few!) falling leaves here and there across our yard. My heart yearns for the cooler months…something wonderful begins to happen. Life slows down, just a little. We don’t seem to try to squeeze every minute of work out of each day. We are content, sometimes, to just sit snuggled under a blanket reading…
the letter “l”
I love Pinterest. I do find myself wondering how I ever survived without Pinterest. Yes, I know it sounds pathetic, but wow! The ideas, the recipes, the decorating…it’s addictive. This week, I planned a special treat…a Pinterest project with my good friend, Christy. I wanted to make a button “L” for my living room. I used a frame, she used…
o-flights
Saturday was o-flight day for Jacob. He went with one of his close friends. They always have a good time (though he did get a little sick this time). This flight was a parabolic flight and they enjoyed feeling zero gravity for a short time (mama *did not enjoy* knowing they were experiencing zero gravity). He has enjoyed Civil Air…

house updates
I’m trying to remain positive right now. Our main contractor- well, he’s not exactly quick, but he does a beautiful, quality job, at an affordable price. What were the chances we could get that a second time? Not good. Our concrete/blocking contractor, well, we have a poured basement. It’s not even. It’s not neat. There are various issues he has…
alabama sunsets
I think they are the most beautiful anywhere. Psalm 19:1-4 The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge. They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them. Yet their voice[b] goes out into all the…
house updates
We’ve made a little more progress on the house this week. Baby steps…baby steps…baby steps… This week, we are hoping to have the rest of the basement poured. The siding on the third side of our home will have to wait until the mason is finished. I look at the yard and wonder when it will every be debris-free. I…
today
There are very few moments in life that take my breath. I’m not talking in that exciting, kind of blissful way. This is a ‘I feel like I’m going to be sick. I can’t breathe. I want to scream at the top of my lungs, but I can only weep’ kind of way. The moments following Mama’s surgery, hearing her…
beauty day
We’ve been visiting Grandmother a couple of times each week. I work on her nails every couple of weeks. On visits when I’m not doing her nails, I’ll roll and spray her hair. A few visits ago, I trimmed it a bit. She seems to enjoy being pampered, and we enjoying visiting with her. This last week, we treated her…
