Update on My Mother


'Morning everyone~ It's a beautiful day here on the Island and we're going to enjoy it!
I thought I would update you all on my mother's condition.
She had major surgery again yesterday and is now in ICU. She looked very frail, hooked up to all those tubes, when I last saw her. I think she has a long road of recovery ahead of her; but with prayer and good nursing care, she will come through it just fine.
My son Jordan is on his way back to Canada from Portugal. He is about mid-way across the Atlantic Ocean as I write this. He really enjoyed visiting Portugal while attending the Math conference. He did however come down with a cold while over there which dampened his trip a bit. But over all, he enjoyed it because he wished he could have stayed till the end of the week!
I probably will not be posting anything again until the end of the week because I am on the go so much. Please keep my mother in your prayers and thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing that! God bless you.
Hugs,
Sandi

Blue Monday


Happy Blue Monday! Would you believe this is my 201st post? Hard to believe!!
Today's offering will be short and sweet. I'm on the run so hopefully you will enjoy what I have for you today.

First up, is a beautiful blue hydrangea. I love hydrangeas of all colours but there's something very special about the blue ones!

Then there is this little cherub, asleep in the crib! I don't think there is anything more innocent than the sight of a sleeping baby! This is my grandson Zachary and he is 10 and a half months. Lots of blue here.
This is him again before taking a nap. He reminds me of his father, all smiles and not wanting to nap. I miss those days! {I think}Blue on his t-shirt, blue on his little blankie, and a blue critter; I believe it's Eeyore he is holding. I miss Zachary! This little darling lives way out on the other side of the country! Visits with this grandmother are very far apart! Boo-hoo!!
Thank you Sally for hosting another Blue Monday. You can visit Sally and all her participants by clicking on the link http://smilingsally.blogspot.com/ or the Blue Monday button on my sidebar.
UPDATE ON MY MOTHER: She got through her surgery and is recuperating nicely. Thank you so much, all you prayer warriors out there. Your prayers have made a big difference!
Have a nice day everyone and may God bless you!
