I'm here, just can't reach you!

For some time now, I have been trying to comment on your blogs. If I get on to them, Server Not Found pops up when I try to comment. Usually though, it pops up when I even tried to read your posts. Is anyone else having this problem?

A Boy, Faith, and New Life

My nephew Jake, had only one gift request this past Christmas, a goat. It was truly his faith and constant prayers for the answer to his dreams, that he received his special gift. On Christmas day, he was so excited to see his goat, which he named Lucy. As a bonus, Lucy was expecting. And today, she gave birth to her little girl.

Pure white, and full of spunk, she's adorable!

Jake couldn't be happier. First with Lucy, now his second blessing, Little Lily!

What a Trooper!

I want to thank all of you for your prayers and kind words. I would like to let everyone know that prayers hold such power. Mom was cleared for surgery, and yesterday had her hip repaired. She came through the operation with flying colors! Today they had her walk a short distance to a chair where she was able to sit for some time before they had her walk back to her bed! Mom never ceases to amaze me. She'll go to rehabilitation probably on Tuesday or Wednesday, then back to Wendy's. Eighty five, and still going strong. Praise God!

Short Break, Prayers Needed

I haven't been here for a while, things have been so crazy. I'm going to be taking a short break, Mom is having more major health issues and is back in the hospital. I don't feel like going into detail, except to say prayers are needed so badly. She went in for heart problems and by the end of the day had fallen and broke her hip. We are so scared for her, she's facing surgery on her hip that they don't know when they will be able to do because of her heart. Please pray, and I'll be back when things are better. I love all of you, you've been the best.
Blessings,
Laurie

Home Again!

Finally! After more than 2 months of hospitalization, Mom is finally home! With no more rehabilitation needed, she was able to go right to my sisters house where she is now living. We are so grateful for all the prayers and well wishers during her illness. It's been a very long road, but now we have her back, and couldn't be happier. Mom especially! Again, bless all of you for your support during a very difficult time in her and our lives.

Pincushion Project

I'm in a pincushion swap in my crazy quilting group, World Wide Crazy Quilters. It had to be made of wool. So while browsing through Pinterest, I found a pattern for this little owl. I think they're so cute!
With a little tweaking I was able to make it work for this. My husband said if he didn't know ahead of time it was an owl, he wouldn't have guessed. Is it that far off!?

Either way, I completed my first project from something I found on Pinterest!
