My Beautiful "October Blue" Life

I had a perfect hour today.  I was walking on the trail in the cool autumn weather, my favorite color in the sky, just telling the Lord how gorgeous His world is...
Shimmering!
Peaceful path


Turning and Falling

Another week or so and we'll see peak color


My favorite October blue


There's a lot going on in my life right now but it's only to show me how much He loves me and that He's waiting patiently for me to accept my portion of His wisdom and strength. Among other things,  there's much JOY as I anticipate grandson Micah's arrival in a few weeks.  I'm thinking that baby will be sizable if my beautiful daughter's tummy is any indication. Ha!  Stay tuned!

Also, there is much concern as I daily (hourly) pray for my dad to be healed of lymphoma.  I feel only confidence that the healing will happen.  Our family is the object of prayers, cards, caring and interested questions, sweet folks always asking "How's your dad?"  And he is enduring...pain from a broken arm that will heal hopefully when his treatment is done, extreme tiredness from the chemotherapy, but I still see quite the sense of humor he's always had! I'm thankful for both my parents and their faithfulness to each other and Him.

More to come...

In the meantime, I will try to live each day prayerfully listening, counting all those blessings I have, and loving every minute I get to spend with these two cuties!

It's About Time!

Baby Micah is due in 5 weeks. 
Dad is taking his 3rd chemotherapy treatment this week.
Work is extremely busy. Very long hours.
Walking the trail 4-5 times a week! I'm loving the solitude and exercise.
Life is good and the Lord is merciful and gives grace to me daily.
More to come...
