A Dream Come True



Sitting in the front row of a concert, holding hands with my best friend and lover, Henry while Fernando Ortega is singing and playing the piano was marvelous!
Hearing him sing "Blessed is the Man that Walks in Your Favor" and "This Great Day", "Jesus,King of Angels"with the cello harmonizing in the background was amazing! We smiled and smiled.

I was able to go up to the stage and hand Fernando one of my Scripture Picture books and tell him this was for his 3 year old daughter, Ruby.

I'm thankful that maybe a little of my creation will bless his family in just a small way since his songs have blessed our family for more than a decade!

Update for September




The end of April saw our area hit with 30 tornadoes! We had a huge tree down and no power for a week, but no significant damage other than losing the food in our refrig. and freezer. Many lost loved ones, homes and property...our hearts go out to each one.

Just when I thought I would catch up at home, our daughter had an emergency C section in Seattle. So I spent two glorious weeks in Seattle helping my daughter recover and getting to know my darling, tiny granddaughter, Ivey Hope and also my son-in-law better.

I returned just in time to be a Hebrew mother in our church sponsored Bible school called Marketplace, 29 A.D.

Then there was a constant stream of summer visitors! Which is great fun for my husband and I to host members of our two large families! We are thankful for everyone that stopped by to see us down by the river!

Then the new director of the ministry that is dear to my heart asked me to take over the facebook page of The Memorial for the Unborn. We are very thankful for the large number of friends that follow us at that site!

So I have been writing updates and answering questions to keep our supporters in the loop as to the various activities happening at The Wall.

I will try to make occasional posts here but at least you now know what's been going on!

I'll end by posting photos of our three little granddaughters. They are the joy of our hearts and definitely do make our lives GRAND!!!
