Happy Birthday to my MIL!~

Today is my mother-in-law's 81st birthday, so I want to take a moment to wish her a very Happy Birthday today! Happy Birthday, Mom! I have been with her son for 32 years, so she is truly like a 2nd mother to me.

Thanks so much for the prayers for my Hubby's cousin, Adam. He has finally been removed from ICU to a regular room. Please keep praying for him. They did the reconstructive surgery on his face Friday two weeks ago. Last I heard, he was still in a medically-induced coma to keep him from pulling out his lines and tubes. Aunt Joyce (his grandma) said his eyes were still swelled shut. I guess so, since every bone in his face was broken! They are not sure he will regain his sight, especially in one eye. Adam is only 25, so I would really appreciate continued prayers for him. Let this be a lesson to all who ride motorcycles! WEAR A HELMET!

My hubby and I will be empty nester's soon. I have pretty much decided I am going back to school for photography. I need something to keep me busy since I won't have any more kids at home. I've raised my family, now it's time for some ME time! :) I will surely miss my baby girl though! ::sniff, sniff::

Happy Blogging!

I wish you all the best when you get to your 'me time' classes for photography.
I will also keep your hubby's cousin Adam in my prayers. Such a young chap to have such a life threatening accident.
I wish him well.
Congratulations to our MIL too. She looks well for her age.
Thank you also for calling by my journal and telling me you voted for my entry. Bless you!

Prayers Needed!~

Tony and his son, Joshua. My brother-in-law, Tony, was in a bad motorcycle accident today. He has multiple injuries and is currently in ICU. Also, I may not be on much for a bit. Am having some health issues of my own. I would ask that you remember me and my family in your prayers as well. Sorry I have been so neglectful of you all lately. I hope to make it up ASAP. Lots of love!~ Susan

CHRISTmas Miracles Do Happen!~

Our family, tonight, was the recipient of a CHRISTmas Miracle. We were watching TV, the story of Mark David Chapman, the man who shot John Lennon, when we received a knock on our door. It was two of my nephews and a great nephew with two HUGE boxes. I asked them what they were doing, they said, "Delivering your CHRISTmas." It was so unexpected, I didn't know what to say. Nobody really knows the extent of how bad things have been for us lately. We have lived off of boxed mac and cheese mixed with tuna or Rice-A-Roni mixed with a small can of chicken. Some nights, we might have pasta, but without the meat. We have had egg sandwiches and grilled cheese sandwiches. I have actually lost about 8 pounds, which I needed to lose, but I do not recommend doing it this way. I hugged my nephews and told them thank you. They told us Merry CHRISTmas and left. It was just that quick. When I opened the boxes, there were wrapped gifts. I did not have one gift under our tree for either of
