First Night

We just got a call from the hospital.  Dad and son have been sent home and mom is left to relax.  It looks like tomorrow is the “big” day.  It is now between God and our granddaughter when she is going to make her appearance.

Checking in

Our daughter and son in-law are now checking into the hospital.  It is almost time for our grandaughter to come into this world of ours.  We are looking forward to meeting her and holding this new life in our hands for the first time.

There’s is a Reason

I was sent this poem on a Valentine day’s card that was dated February 14, 1947.

For every pain that we must bear,
for every burden every care,
there’s a reason.

For every grief that bows the head,
for every teardrop that is shed,
there’s a reason.

For every hurt, every plight,
for every lonely, pained racked night,
there’s a reason.

But if we trust God as we should,
all must work out for our good,
He knows the reason.

After 59 years it is a amazing that I still have this card from my aunts, and what a comforting thought they shared.
