Shane's New Bed

" Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of Faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed in pure water." Hebrews 10:22

I am so blessed with a wonderful family. Sharon is an avid Craig's List shopper and she has really gotten me some good deals. As those of you that know me well, you know that I do not like to shop at all. I couldn't tell you the last time I was in a department store. Yes, I know I am unusual but that is how God made me. I have started Internet shopping for my Christmas gifts and find it much more convenient!

Back to my wonderful family, Sharon was able to get Shane a Little Tikes race car bed with mattress and box springs for a total price of $75.00! Was that a deal or what? He had outgrown his toddler car bed. He absolutely loves his new bed and has slept in it every night! That is a great thing as Shane was in our room with us until Abigail came home. He had never slept alone before and at 19 months old when we brought him home, I didn't have the heart to put him in his own room. I have always liked my children close to me, especially at night. I started preparing him before our trip that he and Abigail would share a room once she was with us. She does well in her own bed and now he is sleeping through the night in his so that is great for all of us!

John Anthony celebrated his 27th birthday on Sunday. He had to work.....that is the life of a newspaper man who works in the sports section. Abigail is doing great. She has become affectionate with us and readily accepts and gives hugs and kisses. She is much less moody now and seems to be really comfortable at our home and with our family. I am delighted with her progress. She went to the doctor yesterday and she will be having a series of test done and we are trusting in the Lord that if it is His will, that all will be good with her.

John and I attended a wedding on Saturday so I thought I would include a picture of us all dressed up. It was a lovely wedding and was outside at a local bed and breakfast.
