October Beauty....


October gave a party;
The leaves by hundreds came -
The Chestnuts, Oaks, and Maples,
And leaves of every name.
The Sunshine spread a carpet,
And everything was grand,
Miss Weather led the dancing,
Professor Wind the band.
~George Cooper, "October's Party"

HAPPY MONDAY!

Naptime Anyone?!



Do you ever feel like doing this...right after you get up?
I do, at this time of year when it is still dark out when I get up!

My friend Sheri over at Tea at Primrose Hill always blows me away with her clever creations!
I've sent you to her blog before for tea party treats...she now has some really fun fall treats featured....you've got to check her out!
Tea at Primrose Hill

I'm back...where have the weeks gone?



Hello!

I've so missed visiting with you, my blogger friends! I hope this finds you all well and enjoying the fall season that has crept up on us! Winter weather has actually appeared way too early for some of us, hasn't it?!
I want to thank you all once again for your prayers and kind, encouraging words while I was up in MA with my brother...you will never know how much they meant to us!

My brother is now in a rehab hospital, has been for a few weeks now, and doing very well. After being in ICU for 3 1/2 weeks, being resuscitated 3 times, having 7 or 8 operations in 4 weeks time, he is very thankful to be alive! At this point he still has no feeling or movement from mid-chest down and must learn how to function independently from a wheelchair. We are all believing God for complete healing and even his doctors are quite optimistic he will walk again!
As many of you know, when you go through something like this you become aware of many different things and come out on the other side with a new awareness and perspective that you didn't have before. As I process all that I have witnessed and been through I'll share with you some of my observations that I believe would be helpful or encouraging.

In the meantime....I am going to get back to visiting with you and posting somewhat more regularly...and I must say...I am very much looking forward to it!


HAPPY FALL!

Thank you!


THANK YOU...all so much for your prayers!
Sean's wife, Donna, and I have felt the wonderful presence of God through this entire process and He has given us strength and peace beyond our ability! He is faithful!
