day is done

The last precious little baby has been put to bed...all is quiet, it is time to unwind. Soon darkness will be upon the world where we are.

We did a lot of visiting today.....the boys were at their best. Nana actually grabbed Eli and pulled him down on the bed beside her. She was very animated and she knew Amanda. Aunt Dottie got lots of holding time.....Jake just walks around making everybody laugh....he is full of very important talk. He was a little scared at the nursing home but he held it in very well for a two year old.

Estelle and Irvin came to the condo for a visit this evening....Eli charmed Estelle and Jake called both of them by name and said hello.....We had a little storm while they were here. All in all it was a nice Sunday. Amanda and I didn't get much of a nap because of Eli, but that's okay.

Just a little while ago God sent us a magnificent rainbow out over the ocean.....a promise from Him to us that He will never again destroy the earth with water, but so much more in that He is sovereign over all things.....He controls the right now and the future. We can rest in Him!

At the first light of day we will hear sweet voices and the patter of little feet down the hall. After we rest tonight we will be ready to start it all over again tomorrow.

What a joy! The blessings of this God of ours! Praise His holy name!
