As relaxed as my mind is acting, over the next few days and weeks you may find out just how sick an individual I am! Scary scary thought!

A pretty good Sunday today! We ended up holding at the seventy-five percent participation for the phillie sleep over. The oldest, Lauren, didn't get to participate. That's O.K., we are still thrilled she speaks to her Grandparents on occasion, she is fifteen. She did make church and Sunday school but not in our organized effort. Group behavior was good. It should have been! In an effort to insure that Addie had her behavioral medication Krl and I both administered it, out of the company of each other! It was still under the maximum recommended dosage but I am just thankful she didn't levitate or something! She was an angel!

Highland is at such a threshold. They are so near needing to keep the two sevices during the summer. Mike says when vacations start to cycle that it will ease up, but for the fourth straight Sunday they were rolling the chairs out!

I got up early this morning and soaked in the tub and read. When Krl finally stirred it was time to get the plan in motion. I got out of the tub and cajoled the three granddaughters to get up and at 'em! Then I proceeded to the kitchen and conjured up sausage egg and cheese biscuits! Once I got the current feeding frenzy under control I put together a roast, potatoes and carrots to cook while we were gone! Three hours later when we walked through the doors, the house was filled with the aroma of "lunch" just waiting to be consumed! We picked up two more participants in the meal department! Kali and Trace showed up after the girls had completed their first swim time of the afternoon! I can't believe it, I had a special roast cut and it was not BIG enough! Everyone was fed but none was left over! I have never asked my Mom how big is big enough! She feeds a multitude every Sunday! I guess the feeding of the multitudes never really impacted me because I saw it every week! It was a common occurrence to see her feed twenty or thirty or as many as sixty! She is such a magician in the kitchen, she would prefer to cook for a group rather than just for Dad and herself! She always says "we can stretch this a little"! We have an inside joke about my ex-sister-in-law cooking canned tamales and stretching them by adding water! It worked for soup! Ha! Ha!

Sunday School was interesting once again! This appears to be a pretty big class but it seems like attendance is spasmodic! Out of the entire class I think only the shepherds wife and four classmates have been there every time that Krl and I have gone. It appears that this class is pretty involved! That is reassuring and powerful. Next week we are supposed to bring something to send to one of the members from Highland who is serving in Iraq. Krl signed up to bring the refreshments for class next week. (I hope they like micro-waved sausage, egg and cheese biscuits!). Today was coffee cake, cantaloupe, grapes and coffee. Carolyn Andress brought it today! I think Diet Coke will be at the top of our list! The gospel of carbonation!

We put Aimee Harris and her family on the class prayer list! If this class appears to be diligent in anything I believe it is their prayer list! The prayers of a righteous person accomplish much! GOD is faithful to answer our prayers!

FATHER, we expect a miracle! FATHER we continue to hold up Aimee Harris for your miracle of healing! Bless her and her family! Please give her good test results tomorrow. Let her chemo be effective. Bless her LORD. FATHER we continue to ask you to help us accept the opportunity to surrender our day and our lives to you! Work through us FATHER. May our day and our week ahead bring Glory to YOU!
