Victories! Yes, there has been some very big victories for the family. Prayers answered, the power of GOD shown through in amazing ways. A little (ok not so little) boy who is growing into not only manhood but servanthood. Who's joy is abundant, who humbles this woman with what he has come through and what he will continue to lay at God's feet in the coming years.
The attack is not over, certainly. But who can come between us and our LORD!

Cleaning
Woke up this morning at 4am to wash the kitchen floor. It's been needing it in a bad way, so she got first priority this morning. How nice it is to have a nice clean floor, never mind the cobwebs, check out the floor!
Was so proud of my cleaning I mentioned to Eathon, "look at the floor", and you know what? He said it " look the same as always." Just goes to show you Mom's....a clean house is not on the top of any kids list.
Directly after cleaning up after lunch a set of newborn lambs were brought in by sweetie - not looking so pert. In fact they looked dead. Heads were hanging, no sound, just awful. Well sinks were cleared, hot water run and two lambs were inserted for a hot water bath. Within about 15 minutes they were baaaing for their mom and in a half hour had recovered the temps to just about normal. We took them out, wrung them off ( how much can you wring a 8 lbs sopping wet, wool covered, kicking lamb?) and fluff dried them.
I headed outside to resume the packing of boxes that was suppose to happen and hour ago and the boys were 'in charge' of the two lambs who have been christened "Whitey" & "Pepper".
A half hour later, I pop in to see "Pepper" is doing much better, trying to nurse the tablecloth off the table and well, the clean floor is - peppa ed!
