WARMS YOUR HEART, AS WELL AS YOUR BONES

Abigail stayed up here last night with us so she could

go to church with us today.. but sad to say we didn't make it.

Norman had some sort of spell, He was having rather severe

breathing difficulties, and I wouldn't dare sleep with him like

that.... (now I know why he couldn't sleep last year when this

same sort of thing happened to me) "Just in case things gets worse,

and you need an ambulance or something. It's SCARY!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pray for my husband, Norman...

Sounded last night like he has asthma...

No, he's never been told that he did

but as much as he was wheezing, it surely sounded

like it to me.. nearly gasping for breath at times..

Boy do I remember that feeling!

(I didn't know I had it either until last year)
We were up most of the night, just sitting on the couch in

the dark trying to rest, but he was struggling so, and

I didn't dare to go on to sleep with him like that..

He has to go to the doctor soon, so I want him to

have them check him for asthma.. (seemed just like a

asthma attack).. he said this morning when ever he

finally did get up at nearly 11:45 that his whole chest

was sore... (I am telling you, it brings back memories,

that I am not at all fond of) GOD BLESS!

How do you like these cooler mornings and evenings...

Yep, autumn isn't far away!

"to every thing, there is a season"

Ecclesiastes 3: 1-8
1To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
2A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
3A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
4A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
5A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
6A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
7A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
8A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

SPEAKING OF CAMPFIRES, Norman and Leisa are talking about taking the kids camping for Nathan's 12th. birthday next weekend... He will love it, I am sure! And I can tell you from experience that a good ole campfire feels wonderful in the evenings and early mornings.

HOPE THEY HAVE A WONDERFUL TIME..

KAYLA (our oldest granddaughter) shares her birthday with Nathan..

Wow, she will be 16 this year, Nathan 12 and Kayla's sister Anna will be 12

in October! All of them are growing up just so fast! So smart, and so

WONDERFUL, "WHAT A BLESSING THEY ALL ARE!"

THANKS GOD!

SHAME ON ME, I DIDN'T TALK TO MOM TODAY!

THANKFULLY I DON'T GO INTO WORK UNTIL LATER TOMORROW,

BUT THEN AGAIN, SHE IS SUPPOSED TO GO HAVE THAT FLUID

REMOVED AGAIN IN THE MORNING.. SO I GUESS I'LL

HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL AFTER WORK AROUND 2:00 TO

GO CHECK ON HER. "GOD BLESS!"

SO I WILL CALL AND CHECK ON HER BEFORE WORK.

WE HAD PART OF OUR FAMILY UP FOR LUNCH TODAY

THEY ARE ALL SO PRECIOUS, AND WE ARE GRATEFUL FOR

EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM, FULLY INCLUDING OUR

DAUGHTER N LAWS AND GRANDBABIES ; )
