"Normal" not so much...

This season, this month has come with hard stuff the last few years and this year is no exception. I count on God to get each of us through and He always has. I know He will continue to do so. As I sometimes pray so hard that everything would be "normal", I realize "normal" is only a selection on our washing machine. This wisdom was from a nieghbor I ran into tonight at Walgreens coming just at exactly the right time!

Prayer is uppermost for us right now. Details are not possible but your prayers are coveted. The Malaysian Bonciminos are doing well and soon we have some terrific news to pass on about them...or at least one of them. We got a chance to talk on SKYPE the other morning (for us) and evening (for them) . I got to give the girls the business and said I was going to photo-shop their faces onto the elf apron and hat montage I am creating of grandkids. I think I will make that my Friday project.

May your holiday preparations prepare your heart for Him...the only place we can truly put our trust and hope.
