Update

My lovely daughter is home for weekend . . . yea! . . . I love it when she is here and being able to spend time with her.

Its been a week of surprises and awareness of the Lord's hand in our lives.

Surprises . . . I received notice my disability had been approved and was more than I expected it to be. I received notice from social security yesterday that I had been approved.

My awesome sister sent me a quilt she had made for me. Each block was unique and in the center of each block were uplifting quotes .. . one even had a quote my Dad used to say . . . "there's always a break".

Steve has a friend who is a well known artist and had given him one of his early paintings years ago. (Before we were married). I had taken it to a studio to try and sell it about 13 years ago. We decided a couple of years ago to pick it up and bring it home because he'd not been able to sell it. When we went to the studio we found it had been closed. In spite of leaving several phone messages, we were unable to reach them. A couple of weeks ago I tried again and surprise . . . I had a phone call from him yesterday morning. Of course, I immediately went over and picked the picture up. When Kristin and I got back from the airport, I hid the picture in Kristin's closet. Steve caught me in my surprise though and found the picture.

Anyway, I was greatful the Lord watched over us with this.
