Just a Little Note
My 75-year-old mother is very sick, she's been sick for a very long time. She has lung disease from smoking, but no longer smokes. She also has c.o.p.d.and she coughs all the time. Recently, she dropped her dentures on the ground while she was in the Walmart parking lot. I'm not sure why she didn't have them in her mouth, but my stepfather, who is also been very sick, accidentally ran them over with their car. She told me the cost for new dentures would be $1,100.00 dollars, but they have no insurance. Please pray that they'll be able to get the dentures she needs as soon as possible.
Thank you for the prayers for our older daughter who broke her leg while we were on vacation.
She has been a real trooper. She broke both her tibia and her fibula, and she had to get 10 screws put into her leg. During the time she was healing, I consistently brought meals to her and her husband's home and helped with the house chores. My other daughter and my son-in-law's mother also helped with the food and chores. The only things that didn't survive were her garden flowers. I could not be there enough to keep them watered and they died. She is nearly recovered now, praise God. The cast has been removed and she no longer is wearing the boot. She's been able to walk, but still has a limp. She is going through therapy until she is fully healed.
My daughter had her annual garage sale, which was made up of about 15 families. She and my other daughter worked very hard with the organizing and pricing. This kept my wounded daughter busy during her recovery from her broken leg. By God's grace, they were able to have another successful year, even though the location of the sale was moved from my home to their home this year. I helped on the inside of the home, preparing lunch and helping keep the house presentable, which is very hard to do when having a very large garage sale. I also helped with the refolding of the clothes to keep them organized. I didn't put very much in the sale. I made about $100.00. I'm thankful for our three men who helped lift and move things. Both my daughters and myself were not to do excessive heavy lifting this year.
One good thing about having the garage sale every year is that the tithes go up at our church. Our people are faithful tithers thank the Lord We have been blessed and have been able to support three missionary families on a regular basis. Pray that God will continue to supply that need.
My younger daughter and her husband are pregnant with our first grandchild. The baby had the hiccups last night. It is the first movement that she has felt since the baby was conceived. I cried when I saw the baby's ultrasound, just feeling grateful for another little one in our lives. We are calling the baby "Baby Bean" at this time, which is humorous because the baby actually jumped when getting his first ultrasound. We are not sure if the baby is a girl or a boy, I hope we will know before the garage sales are over for this year.
