Viewing the Circle of Life...

So, again, it's amazing to me how fast the time flies.  Had the great priviledge of being a servant to my friend on March 28, 2012 for the birth of her fourth child, a daughter!  She and her hubby now have four children: two boys and two girls.  Blessed they are!

On April 2, my 86 1/2 yo mom, got pretty sick (she had been in Rehab since February 10th)...short story, she had an allergic reaction to the antibiotics they had to use for her pneumonia, and so, after trying to deal with it for 9 days, on the morning of April 15, she went to the ER (I followed in my car).  She was in CCU from Sat-Wed, then, transfered to ICU on Wed-Thur, and came back to Rehab on Friday.  All were amazed.

She is doing much better, but, we see certain progressions taking place...she used to have a good appitite; now, she's not eating much.  But, she still loves to see me and see her grandkids, so, it's fine.  She is awake and aware and conversant, does not have any pain, so, that is a blessing for sure.

So...beginnings of life...my kids are in the young adult part's of life....my dear hubby and I are in the "they are almost all launched" part of life....and, my mom is nearing the end of life.  God's grace is upon us all.

Amazing Grace!
