Hello my friends! Hope your Monday went great! I was so busy today and a long day but it was good, watching the twins grow is a blessing. They are out of their preemie sleepers now, and some newborns. They are over 8 pounds now, maybe even 9 by now. I noticed today they want more milk!! All is breast milk - and she pumps alot and has enough for the twins. It's so different now than it was when my girls were babies. I know for sure that when they were 2 weeks old, they got some baby food veggies, and pablem, 3 weeks old, introduced them to baby food meats. Now it's just breast feeding. Nothing else. But they are growing and that's the main thing. Today she made a taco soup that was so delicious! I'm bringing more of that Amish Baked Oatmeal tomorrow because they loved it!! It sure gets late when we get home from Darla's on a Monday night as he works until 8. God bless you all!
Forget it!
Forget about the days when it's been cloudy,
but don't forget your hours in the sun
Forget about the times you've been defeated,
but don't forget the victories you've won
Forget about mistakes that you can't change now,
but don't forget the lessons that you've learned
Forget about misfortunes you've encountered,
but don't forget the times your luck has turned
Forget about the days when you've been lonely,
but don't forget the friendly smiles you've seen
Forget about the plans that didn't seem to work out right,
but don't forget to always have a dream.
August 15 - Jesus Calling
I am the God of all time and all that is. Seek Me not only in morning quietness but consistently throughout the day. Do not let unexpected problems distract you from My Presence. Instead, talk with Me about everything, and watch confidently to see what I will do.
Adversity need not interrupt your communion with Me. When things go “wrong,” you tend to react as if you’re being punished. Instead of this negative response, try to view difficulties as blessings in disguise. Make Me your Refuge by pouring out your heart to Me, trusting in Me at all times.
Evening, morning and noon I cry out in distress, and he hears my voice.
—Psalm 55:17
Therefore let everyone who is godly pray to you while you may be found; surely when the mighty waters rise, they will not reach him.
—Psalm 32:6
Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.
—Psalm 62:8

Busy day for you Gloriajean but sure sounds like it was great. What blessings those little ones are and to see them grow so well and doing great. Darla too seems better. YEA! Enjoy this time and embrace it all.
Good day at the museum and we were busy. Always fun! Back there on Wednesday and then not until end of the month.
If you all have an extra prayer, I need some strength these days. Having landlord issues, worried he may not renew my lease come Nov. Also, 2 sick kitties again. Virginia in today for blood tests and her eye may be acting up again. Faith is still not herself with this cold and her eye looks not right. Hoping to get an appointment for her Thurs or Saturday. My worrying and fears are off the charts. I pray for strength and courage to weather this storm. All extra prayers would help! Thank you.
Well, after the vet today another friendand I are taking a friend out for her 40th birthday. Looking forward to that!
Hope your day is filled with joy, many blessings and peace ladies. Enjoy!
Peace, Nancy

Meallen, you will never know how much this means to me. Kind of in a tizzy these days and your kind words and prayers help me to get through all of this. Thank you!
Peace, Nancy

I don't know you, but I do know kitties -- and how stressful it is when you are worried about your furry friends.
Hoping your girls are back to full health soon. Saying a prayer for them right now.

Gloriajean, it sounds like the babies are doing great and Darla is so much better. And you helped all of this to happen! "Judge Gently" is such a good reminder, and of course "Look on the Sunny Side" says it all.
Nancy, I'm sorry for the valley you are in right now. Prayers are being sent for you and your worries.
I will have two of my grandchildren for the next couple of days, and we are looking forward to that. On their list is a large bookstore near here and the candy store. Great choices!
I hope open everyone can enjoy her Tuesday!

Happy to hear Darla is feeling much better, and the twins are growing and thriving.
Hi Nancy, I'm praying for you to get your lease renewed, and I'm praying hard for your kitties too, as you know we have 3 dogs and one kitty, so we know how you feel if one of them gets sick. I hope the Vet makes them better.
Blessings to all.

Thank you all for your support and prayers for Faith and Virginia. Virginia was a real trooper tday and seemed to have all her blood drawn but just seemed like that to a nervous Mom, me! Well, waiting for those results tomorrow. The vet did not like how her thyroid felt and also, seems she has a heart murmur. That made me burst into tears and just thankful my vet knows me so well, 21 years! Anyway, just a shock and all a bit overwhelming and yes, expensive so added worries. FOr now, keeping her on her meds and waiting to see. Faith heads there Thurs because her cold has not resolved. I am praying a lot and trying not to get overwhelmed. I am tired and just worried. They are my life!
You have all been so kind and your words, thoughts and prayers have made my day and meant the world to me. God sent you all to me today and I am grateful.
Peace ladies and hope your evening is a blessed one.
Nancy
