Well I haven't posted in a few days. Life on the farm has been busy. We only have a few days left before they sell. I am on the count down as usual. Nothing much happened around here this weekend.I was disappointed when Tessa and Bridget didn't get to come for the weekend. I hope Tessa is feeling better and we can try again soon. I was looking forward to our visit . Hayden did come yesterday and spent the day. He is growing so fast and learning so much. I cannot get over how he drinks from a glass. We went for stroller rides,sat on the porch and rocked just a fun day. Now I have someone to set on the porch with me.
Sunday's are always out of routine around here. We get up at five in order to work our chickens so we can be at church on time. We had a great service today and unusual also you could just feel the presence of the Lord. Scott was doing our announcements and talking about the march against drugs in the county. Our Pastor had some input so he stood up to talk about it. This woman just came in and went straight to him and said she needed prayer so we immediately stopped what we were doing and all gathered in the altar for prayer . You could feel God's spirit so strong. After we finished she thanked us and left. We continued on just having service as usual. After we had dismissed . We were standing around talking and the woman came back and told our pastor that God had saved her earlier when she prayed and that she would be back. We only got her first name and that she lived close by. I don't know what her problem was only God does He sent her our way and I think we were obedient to His word. As I look back on the service I can see God's thread He weaves. The talk about drugs and how one in every ten in North Georgia is on some kind of drugs. The sermon was on come who will and how God will forgive you no matter what you have done if only you will ask Him. The song Kimberly sang about Jesus dying upon the cross for us such love for us that He would give His life for us. How awesome!!!
Now girls I wasn't intending to make you get teary eyed about Ma. I was just thinking about her and how much she meant to me and how we take things for granted that the ones we love will always be there. When we lose them to death we still have our memories to hold with us. The memories are good for us. I remember the doughnuts also . Ma always had something for me when I went to take her to town or do something for her. I really miss not having her and Mama to take shopping and help them now guess who is crying . I guess I'll say it has been a good day and end here.
