For Today August 4, 2009

Outside my window... already HOT here in Florida but hold on the rain will come in at some point and cool things down

I am thinking... how HAPPY I am that Dad is doing well, Bailey (the horse) is VERY MUCH improved after his surgery and I get to be home with my honey and my kids in 5 days :)

I am thankful for...oh so much.....time here in Florida, the laughter my husband brings me when we talk on the phone :) and skyping my kids is such good medicine for me but I will see them soon :)

I am wearing... shorts and my pink muscle shirt

I am reading...When Jesus Speaks into your sorrow by Nancy Guthrie, Take 2 by Karen Kingsbury

I am hoping...to see the hand of God move in the lives of the people on my friend Beth's blog!

Around the house...I will be mowing all day tomorrow! We have had soo much rain but I think I will be able to get out there tomorrow.

One of my favorite things...learning new things about my Dad and seeing him be silly is such a gift!

A few plans for the rest of the week: We get to see Dads oncologist on Thursday before chemo which is good so I will know the plan of action before I head back to Oklahoma. Mowing. Spending time in the barn with Bailey :)

Here is picture thought I am sharing...

Our son has an infatuation with Canada and we have NO IDEA why ....maybe missions work there? who knows?? Some of our friends go there quite often and surprised him last night with the jersey! HE WAS THRILLED!! My Husband took this silly pic of Jantzen wearing it and emailed it to me.....Thanks Babe!

Loren,

Love your post! I will be praying for things on all fronts, for your dad to have a bit of encouraging news, perhaps the bit of spicy food he has been craving, that Bailey will be put out to pasture soon, not that pasture, but recovery one, so that he/she can enjoy the cool green grass under the hooves and soon be able to run again. Is Bailey a girl or boy? Can't tell by the name?

And for everyone on Beth's blog as well. I am a follower of hers as well so keep them in our prayers as well.

I am doing a happy dance for you that you will be heading home soon, and adding my special prayers that you will get home safe and sound.

Love and Hugs ~ Kat

Glad this is a good day for you after the concerns yesterday for your dad and the abused horse. And I think the shirt looks neat!

Your son knows where it's at! Canada is a great place.

Oh my friend. I love all your thoughts for the day and week. I am happy to hear about your Dad AND Bailey. Said a prayer for them today. I will miss knowing you're not in Florida any more in 5 days! LOL
Hugs to you sweet sister.

Adorable picture. I had an infatuation with Alaska and still do...now I have an Alaskan Malamute named Sitka and we do dog therapy. You just never know how GOD is going to use his interests.
Happy mowing and give Bailey a big hug from me.
Blessings,andrea

That's great to hear that Bailey is doing much better. And you get to go home in 5 days? I know you must have missed your family sooo much! But at the same time, it is a big blessing for you to be with your dad.
That shirt looks nice and your son's thrill showed!!! I used to dream about America and God did bring me here. Didn't expect He would put me in "jail"... :)
Love you sister in Christ and I always enjoy your posts. Brings you nearer to our hearts as we learn more about you. God bless you and your beautiful family. I can say we are blessed with sweet and understanding hubbies! Thank you Lord!
