We are home, and the first thing I want to say is thank you for your prayers. We weren't in the door ten minutes last night before the storm broke. We were so thankful to be snug inside our home while the thunder rolled, the lightning flashed and the wind lashed the rain against our windows. Thank You Lord!!

We had a great time with our grandchildren. The time went by so quickly. My husband played and rode bikes with our grandson the whole time. He really enjoyed having Papa all to himself. I got to spend time with the girls. L. is the middle child of five - so I think it was nice for her to get to be "oldest" for a few days. She was a great help - even giving directions to Papa when we took them into town to do a bit of shopping and eating out. She really knows her way around, and I (being directionally challenged) was very impressed.

I had such fun taking care of my three year old granddaughter. I got to dress her and comb her hair. She talks a "blue streak", and I love just listening to her. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with them.

No news yet from the two oldest grandchildren who are in Oklahoma for the Bible Quiz. I'll be sure and post the results as soon as I know anything.

I'm now going to try to read some of your posts between doing a bit of laundry and getting ready for church this evening. My saturdays go so quickly. We have to be at church by 4:15 for choir so the day just seems to fly by.

Thank you so much again for praying for us. God hears and answers prayer.

Blessings,
