It's ok

I was worried about my parents because I could not reach them for hours. But they are fine. Thank God. I guess I'm fine too. As you can read, I've felt extra stressed over the past month. It helps to be planning a vacation. We leave in about a month. I have a house sitter, just in case you think you can rob my house. Someone will be here!
It's been very hot in Germany, but the heat broke and we have some rain. I'm thinking this is a picture of my life. Record heat, stress, dryness. Then something breaks, and we have some relief. God knows what we can handle. What's more, He answers prayer. I have been spending much more time praying for my sons. I am hoping to see His salvation! He loves them more then I do. He places orphans in families…nothing we go through is a surprise to God. This gives me courage and comfort.


"Something Beautiful" By Bill Gaither

Something beautiful
Something good
All my confusion
He understood
All I had to offer him
was brokenness and strife
but he mad something
beautiful of my life

Olivia is born

My niece had a beautiful baby girl named Olivia Rose (Beautiful name). Everyone is very excited and thank God healthy! Congratulations to the whole family! Hugs to my sister Shelley who is now a proud grandma for the 2nd time. My sister Dianna has 6 grand kids (I think). My brother and I are too young for such an blessing. At least our kids are too young. I'm going to have to wait to be called grandma. Here is a cool picture I took off Shelley's blog. It shows Eric (the tired but proud grandpa) Lissa with her first daughter Charlotte, and then a sleeping Olivia Rose. 3 generations in one shot. How fast life goes by! How beautiful life can be!

painting the garage

Rick goes home in the morning. I'm sure he will be happy to see his kids again. 3 weeks is along time to be away. The time has passed so fast. It's been really wonderful! So wonderful!!! We may stay up all night, that way he can sleep well on the flight. Hopefully his jet lag will be less this way! Anyway, here is his painting. It turned out more then good! I really love it...just like I love my brother! We will have to do this again soon!

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.
