I'm a wife, mother of six and nanajan to seven. I love caring for my family and home and anything that takes me outside: walking, gardening, hiking and cross-country skiing. I was recently diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease)
Let us then labor for an inward stillness~ An inward stillness and an inward healing; That perfect silence, where the lips and heart Are still, and we no longer entertain Our own imperfect thoughts and vain opinions, But God alone speaks in us, and we wait In singleness of heart,that we may know His will, and in the silence of our spirits That we may do His will, and do that only!
Christmas Eve we had our yummy ham dinner and then our program. Everyone performs and receives a wrapped box of cereal from G & G and we finish with the nativity story read by Gramps and acted out by the great-grandkids. It's awesome that we now have enough great-grandchildren to act out the story. We had a dry spell there for a few years when the grandchildren were too old.
