Happy New Year 2009!

A New Year Blessing

May the road you walk be a smooth one,

May your troubles be few — if any,

May the days and years that lie ahead

Be healthy, happy, and many,

May you have friends in abundance,

May the sun shine bright around you.

May the world be a wonderful place to live,

And may God's love always surround you.

The Lions

My, how the time just flies by. The more I have to do, the less time I have to do it. This is just a quick post to let you know I am still around. Amanda is doing much better, and that makes me feel better. I finished the lions for the latest installment of the Noah’s Ark project. I liked the way this one turned out. They are all just so cute. Thanks again, Lynette.

Back to Blogging

I have never been a daily, or even weekly, blog poster, but this is ridiculous. It has been more than a month since I have made a post. I can say that there have been some legitimate reasons for this, but a lot of it is because of a lack of inspiration. Amanda has been back in the hospital during this time, and continues to have medical problems. She is home now, and seems to be feeling better, but I worry so about her. Please continue your prayers for her. On a lighter note, I have just finished the November block of the Noah's Ark series, and that reminds me that I need to check to see if the one for December is up on Lynette's site. We had a really nice Thanksgiving Day. All of my children and their kids were here, except for the son who lives in Houston. I know the rest of the month will be a busy time for everyone. I don't know how often I will post, but God willing, it will be more often than in the past month
