I had just finished with my last patient before the lunch hour. I grabbed a quick snack and drink of water. As I set up for my next patient, I prayed, as I usually did.
instruments in their right places? check…
vitamin E ointment for their lips? check…
I was set to go.
The vitamin E ointment was key….I [...]
A day of rest…..
Posted in Family, community, life, my girls, my man, my nest, random thoughts on July 6, 2008 | 16 Comments »
I love taking a day of rest each week, and usually it is either a Saturday or a Sunday depending on which day my husband is not on fire-shift.
But I find myself getting pulled back into busyness, or obligations. I can think of seasons in the past where I was diligent to protect our day [...]

I can remember one of our first visits to the Fire Station. Sean had just taken a new job with MFD. I dressed my girls all up, curled their hair, and convinced them that if they were on their best behavior, that surely daddy would invite us all back again.
We brought in dinner for the shift: [...]

A very short 6 weeks ago we lost two of our brothers in an off duty accident. My heart quickly steps into the shoes of their 2 beautiful brides and thier daughters…..I have not been able to get them out of my heart…

The Piano
Posted in Faith, Family, Friends, my girls, my man, my nest on June 11, 2008 | 18 Comments »
I don’t know if it was me or Him when the impression came to my heart to give away my piano.
I had wanted to play piano since I was little. The only piano I had access to was at my grandpa’s house. I saw him once or twice a year. and when I did, I was [...]

Jessie’s cast was shortened at week three. She could bend her elbow now, yet was even more hesitant than before.

Mark 4:39
I called that morning to make an appointment with yet another doctor. I had seen so many in the past year: neurologists, osteopaths, physical therapists, dentists, chiropractors…..none had any answeres. [...]
