Having Been Absent

It's been a very long time since I posted. Life is full of grandchildren to love on, aging in-laws to help with, and sewing for the baby girl who will make her appearance late February or early March.

We have had a difficult week as our son-in-law has been critically ill with Sepsis and a blood clot in his lung.  Trips to the ICU in a neighboring city's hospital, caring for LMW almost around the clock and other demands that go with this sort of thing has us all running on empty. Fortunately, SIL seems to be improving and we hope to bring him off the vent today or tomorrow. He was admitted a week ago today in a frightening condition. We had a few  several hours of fear for his survival. We have had countless folks praying and we've felt those prayers!

It's not over, and he will be a bit recovering, but God is good and will take care of it. In the meantime, daughter must work, LMW must go to preschool, and we carry on.

When things slow down a bit, I'll post recent pics of my babies since it's been so long.
