Hi Molly....Everyone!

The Christmas season, so far, has been a blur for my family....starting way before Thanksgiving.

My dad has gone from assisted living home...to hospital....to the home again....to rehab...and now to nursing home....

...we've been consumed with hospital visits....moving him from place to place....paperwork....PLUS...

..Christmas shopping....errands for dad...etc etc...

And then we both got sick.....sinus and bronchial infections....(thank-you God for antibiotics!)

..HOWEVER...God has been so very faithful each and every day....His Providence and mercies new every morning.

Even in our busy-ness....my husband and I stop to marvel at God's provision and care!

Dad is failing in body and mind....

...but we are here to help him with this journey.....he is the 'child' now who needs looking after...fed...tucked into bed.
...a long time ago he did that for me.

God is good.

Hope prevails every day.

Hope you all have a blessed and most wonderful Christmas!

God is good and He is totally sovereign (a redundancy for emphasis) in what we are experiencing. Praise the Lord!
