Birthday WIshes and Aw...Mondays

 

Today our oldest girl Noelle and her husband Roger share a Happy Birthday! They drove to Las Vegas to spend some time away from work and the day to day hassles of life. Happy Birthday to our kids! Phamily is such a precious part of our lives.These two have three kids, 11 grands and one goofy doggy.

So Roger and Noelle have matching shirts. I know, it is quite an honor that they want to be like her dad Avery and me. Thanks kids! You make us proud!

 Can you say Aw...Mondays ? This is Piper their girl. She was spayed this past week so she is recuperating with other phamily.

My husband is my rock. He is kind and faithful and logical. He is a real live Super Man.  Love is...always knows exactly what I need. We spent the past month unwinding and Avery is back to work and feeling energized. He is such a good person. A great dad, sully grandpa and greatgrandpa and all around great guy!

I have spent most of my days in prayer. My list is long and grows longer each day. Everyone needs prayer. I ask for prayer for Linda and David who lost their son Liam this weekend. My heart aches for them. Prayers for Mary my cousin who is healing from surgery. Prayers for my cousin Ken recuperating from a hospital stay. His wife Kay is a real prayer warrior along with their son Paul, a local pastor in Pueblo West. Ken has been a real trooper through the years and has had some serious health concerns. I am grateful he is getting stronger each day. COusin Chuck, recuperating with this daughter Julie (RN) from a fall and broken hip. Chuck shares July 23 as his birthday with Avery and my late day. He is a really good guy. Prayers for Ryan and Ed, both law enforcement officers along with Lee, Sissy and Felix. Their job is never an easy one. There are many good cops so do not be fooled by untruths. I know many kind hearted cops who help other with no regard for recognition. I pray they are all safe. Prayers for the Wheelers trying to get their two triplets Nancy and Daisy home to join brother Charles and the rest of their siblings, Eppie, Thomas, David, James, Aaron Jr, Amanda and Aaron. An amazing phamily with tremendous faith. The girls need to drink their required breastmilk so they can go home where brother Charles is wondering, where are my sisters? Eppie is the oldest and she is getting to an age where life can overwhelm a girl on the cusp of growing up. Pray for her too. They are such wonderful people.Prayers for Janna and Brian as they navigate new parenthood with baby Finley Grace. Sarah and Evan as they proudly show us their two year old Jack and his new sister Emmerson. Beautiful healthy girls these newborns.
