It's Saturday!

Which means a festive, fun filled day around our house. We (dh and I) are getting ready to head out to the grocery. I love it when he goes shopping with me. It can be fun! From there we will pop into the library to check on Cinderella and drop off some books. Maybe they will have a best-seller I am looking for. I don't have any particular one in mind but I am always on the lookout for a good book. Then it's back home to plow through the laundry and ironing. We're cleaning parrot cages today too. There's a ball game on this afternoon. We would normally be excited about watching it, but we are having a Horrible season so most games are painful to watch. But a true fan watches during the good and the bad. Besides, we might have a great game. So what if Vandy is unbeaten. Some body's gotta win. Might as well be us, right? I think it will probably be a quiet evening. We have a DVD from netflix to watch and are making homemade pizza. (No sauce for The Boy.)

Speaking of The Boy, he seems to be doing some better. He made a conscious effort to eat some yesterday and he ate some breakfast. We are planning on tempting him with his favorite food for lunch. Hopefully, knowing he can stay home if he feels sick will prompt him into eating. The mind is a tricky thing and it's hard to battle something that is in your head. But I do appreciate your prayers.

Well, we are a' Wal-marting so I'd better go. Happy Saturday to you!

Dear Karen,
As a mom, I understand those times when we feel so utterly helpless and know as Believers that God really is in control....but....it is so hard. I join you in praying because, that really is the very best thing we can do. Satan has a way of attacking, just let the Boy know God has something very special for him and Satan knows it, so he is trying his best to make the Boy miserable and rob him of his joy, but that is not gonna happen! In Jesus Name...oh and when the Boy starts feeling a bit uncomfortable just begin praising God all over the place.

I'm so glad your son is doing better. I know how upsetting it is to me when my kids are sick and I'm worried and it's never been anything serious. It's got to be very upsetting. Hey, maybe you can offer him some chocolate icing!! LOL! Thanks for the encouraging words by the way. We'll make our goals one way or the other, right?!
