Our son Kris asked in December if Les would like a new walking stick or a new cane. Well, I didn't know! He schemed with my nephew Derek, and Derek made this new cane. Amazing. This guy has been making some very creative things lately (he made Kris & Hannah's dining table for their wedding gift!!!) Les is very dependent on his cane right now.
See his wood burning? Bird feathers on top and Hank on the bottom?? |
neighbor Jeany, neighbors David and Karen, neighbor chef Dan (and wife Melinda), bestie Lori and family, Carolyn, neighbor nurse Kay, Joel S., Lu, Trisha and Doris, David and VW family, Tom, Iowa bestie Nancy, Lori VW, Brian and Lonnie, Steve and Sheri, Carl and Renee, Bruce and Jermaine, Sherm and Phyllis, my parents, our families. AND the cleaning fairies made another appearance!
We received goodies, soup, pies, Christmas decorations, poinsettas, notes, casseroles, boot cuffs (for me - not Les!), gift cards, California lemons, coffee beans, special sweat pants, special keys from France.......we are so thankful for each of you. And we are thankful for everyone's prayers - I've said it before, WE FEEL THEM.
From church on Sunday:
-"O for a closer walk with God, A calm and heavenly frame, A light to shine upon the road, That leads me to the Lamb!
-Where is the blessedness I knew, When first I saw the Lord? Where is the soul refreshing view, Of Jesus and His Word?
-What peaceful hours I once enjoyed! How sweet their memory still! But they have left an aching void, The world can never fill.
-The dearest idol I have known, Whate'er that idol be, Help me to tear it from Thy throne, And worship only Thee.
-So shall my walk be close with God, Calm and serene my frame; So purer light shall mark the road, That leads me to the Lamb."
We were blessed with a soul searching sermon from Pastor Ken about the things in our lives that keep us from Jesus. We hope and pray that this new year finds you at peace with God.
