30 days of Thankfulness, Day 5

Day 5:

I'm very thankful that in all my life, I've always had a roof over my head. God has blessed me greatly with the home I live in now. Randy is a good provider and this house was his home when I met him. I love it and I love the yard. Sometimes I miss my little house in Ringwood - but not often. I'm slowly adjusting and this is becoming home.

30 days of Thankfulness, Day 4

Day 4:

I am thankful that my parents are still alive and that they are still able to live on the family farm. I know it may not be long before other arrangements need to be made, but for now, they are content. My Dad is planting wheat this fall! Which is wonderful. He did have someone else cut his wheat, which was a good decision but a surprise to all of us.

My Mom, she doesn't do so well. I know it's hard on her that my brother and I both moved away in the same year. I do try to talk to her several times a week and so far have been able to go visit them once a month. - and my brother goes by to see them once or twice a week.

I pray these twilight years are easy for them.
