Art Time

Published by Chloe under Uncategorized

Claire tried her hand at some finger painting recently. She was fine with it, until she realized that the paint was sticking to her hand. Then she was ready to be “clean”.

Wilson’s idea of art is sometimes a little different. He’s a man of “working” arts. Mark and I recently gave Wilson a JOB to work on in the garage. We gave him the adirondack rocker off the porch and a Black and Decker Mouse sander. He’s stripping the paint off with the sander and has done a wonderful job thus far. He’s now also equipped with a dust mask and ear protection. We are looking forward to a “like new” rocker for the Spring. He’s already made a list of tools he needs us to give him for Christmas…. ha ha ha.

A thought for today…

Published by Chloe under Uncategorized

“If God wants you to do something, he’ll make it possible for you to do it, but the grace he provides comes only with the task and cannot be stockpiled beforehand. We are dependent on him from hour to hour, and the greater our awareness of this fact, the less likely we are to faint or fail in a crisis.” - Louis Cassels (1922-1974)

Home again…

Published by Chloe under Uncategorized

An update on Sophie, for those of you who were aware she was hospitalized on Friday.  The doctors gave her clearance to come home this morning.  She did not need the oxygen last night and didn’t spike any fevers.  She’ll be finishing out two antibiotics, but they were able to give us oral solutions, so no more IV.  Her lungs are beginning to sound better and Dr. George said he wanted her “up and about” as much as possible today.

Many thanks for all the phone calls, and the prayers. A special “thank you” to the Bunny Club. We are all glad to have her home again, and personally…. Mark and I are glad we won’t be watching “Enchanted” again today. Five times in two days was A LOT!!!
