Jessica had trouble sleeping last night. It can get frustrating, because she is not
quiet. And at one point at about 4:30 am
I got up and tucked her into bed again.
This time I took my pillow and blanket and laid down on the other side
of her bed. I did not say anything. I did not rub her arm (she likes that). I just laid there and slept. And Jessica fell asleep too. And it made me think about prayer. I know in my mind that God is always
there. But when I am afraid or worried I
do not have this peace. It only comes
when I pray. And then I become aware
that God is there. And even if I get no
clear answer, just the assurance of his presence gives me peace.
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!
