It’s a grey day with a slight drizzle falling and a brisk chill in the air. I love days like this~ especially with a warm blanket and a good book. Yesterday, the sunshine came, along with warm breezes…that was nice too. Spring feels like a strong possibility. I think it might be in our future!
Along with it, buds and flowers and fresh fruit and vegetables…baby bunnies and squirrels and robins…
Puppies and babies…
I just got home from a good visit with my friend, Elaina. She’s been in the hospital for 16 days now and Lord willing, will be in there a lot longer. She is 25 weeks and 6 days pregnant with twin boys. She gave all of us a good scare 16 days ago and I am so thankful that they are still safely tucked in her belly. Please help me pray they will stay in there and continue to get healthier and healthier. Carrie and I left Elaina’s room feeling so happy~ ever go around someone who you should be encouraging and leave feeling like you were the one encouraged? Elaina is such a trooper. She’s teeny tiny and still struggling with nausea after all this time, has a rash from the hospital linens’ detergent, contractions, back pain and still had us laughing the whole time. Love that girl.
It helped Elaina so much to see the comments in the last post about Bailey~ thank you for sharing your stories! Please continue praying for Bailey, Josh, Stacey and add Elaina to your prayer list. We’ve had it heavy on our hearts the last couple of weeks and sometimes forget that we should share our burdens with others. Reading all of your comments was a good reminder…
Rain,
Wash away all fear, all stress, all unrest
Sunshine,
Warm us, reach down into the depths and pull us up
Grow us.
Winter,
Fade in the twilight, icy branches heavy no more
Spring,
Come in, the way has been paved for you.
