Thanks for the encouragement about this blog, in the back of my mind I sometimes wonder if it makes sense as that kind of blog, I just try to share what I would normally have fully shared with her or things that I would like to remind her of. So thank you! And thanks for your wonderful blog that I truly enjoy! I'm thankful for you! Happy Thanksgiving to you too!<br />Hugs :)Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01636373948332369918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541407635230457169.post-82552927803718775422011-11-23T22:40:27.190-05:002011-11-23T22:40:27.190-05:00You and your mom are amazing!!!!!

That'...Linda, thank you for your sweet comment! That's exactly what I think, you are a gift from God for me! I was just thinking last night as I read and enjoyed your post that I am so glad that I found blogging. I can honestly say, it has changed my life, it gives me an outlet and is so therapeutic. Not only that, it has given me amazing people who I consider friends, just through the simple connection from blogging. I have gained so much! One thing that was probably a little different for us, and the reason I was able to stay a little more calm, is that the weather during the day was great. There was no rain and it was a bit warmer out. I might not have been as good if it were really cold and we weren't able to get out. :) But, yes, thank you, glad to have electricity back. And AMEN, He certainly is my Power, and He doesn't fail me. Thanks for that reminder! God bless you and hope you and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving!Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01636373948332369918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541407635230457169.post-46818973828035827672011-11-23T07:52:03.045-05:002011-11-23T07:52:03.045-05:00Stacey, I headed over to your blog this morning to...Stacey, I headed over to your blog this morning to thank you for being so encouraging to me. Your comments always brighten my day and I feel you are a gift from the Lord to me! Then I read this post and was humbled and blessed by these words. It's so funny that we've had a similar experience--several years ago our power was out for over a week, in the middle of winter. What a dark, dreary time. I did not handle it as well as you. Day after day in the dark and the cold and worrying about Mom's welfare and trying to take care of her needs...ugh. But my mother, like yours, handled it like a champ. God bless you. So glad your electricity is back on and for your connection with our Lord; the Power who never fails!Linda Bornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07878172863563837367noreply@blogger.com
