Aprons from Romania
Thought you'd
like to see the aprons, monica made for all the cousins. This was on one of our Bible study days. Where we do a lesson, kids play, sometimes do projects.

Goodbye's and Hello's


Well we had to say goodbye to Mike, Jo, Grace and Faith. They have moved to Chardon. They seem very happy about it, but grandma is happy for them, but sad for herself. Two girls gone, two girls come. This is the gang with Aliyah and Ariel on their last day. I am very grateful to God that the cousins got to know each other and we were blessed to have them here for 14 months. I pray God's blessings on their new adventure.

Mother
I don't want anyone to be under the impression that I am only a grandmother. It sometimes hard to believe, but I still have a very vital teenager in my home. He has been God's blessing to us since the day he was born. God knew our crazy diverse family needed a baby to unite us and that we'd need his creative, young, God thirsty presence when all our other kids had long gone to make lives of their own. I am very grateful to God's wisdom and foresight into our lives.
Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Poem by Mark

I do not understand
why an infant's life is taken for science
why ignorance is bliss
why being loved is often times hard to accept
But most of all I do not understand
why people always take what they have for granted
I've seen people rich with money longing for a happier life and people with happy lives wanting to be rich with money
What I understand most is my God's love for me
Even though I screw up
He is by my side
Even when I turn my back on Him
He pursues me.
