Immaculate Conception-eve

Hello, hello :)

Today marks the eve of the date that the Roman Catholic Church celebrates the immaculate conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, God's creating her clean and unblemished by origional sin in preparation for her motherhood of Christ! Thank You, Lord, for Christ's mother, the beautiful Virgin Mary, whose "Yes" to You brought Christ into the world to bring our salvation! We love you, Mary!!

Alex had a busy day today working with our friend Carl to get our garage organized. As we have a small garage and lots of stuff, this was not small feat. Thank you, Crockett, you are our hero! Erin had a fun day at Ms. Vicki's, and mommy had a good day at work. I was even fortunate enough to be given a gift of peace from God over a worry I'd had--ahhhh! it feels so splendid to just hand it over to Him and allow Him take the lead :)

As a consequence of the day, Alex was very tired and in a lot of pain after working. He got some rest while Miss E. and I stuff ourselves (mostly me!) on a pasta dish containing the dangerous combination of lemon, bacon, veggies (Stir-fry, as those were the only one's in house!), chicken, gluten-free pasta, and Parmesan cheese. Can you say 'stuffed'? I might be able to, if only I could breathe around all this food in my tummy....

We officially decorated the tree yesterday, and for the first time, Ms. E got to help. I think the best part continues as she stops and talks to several of the ornaments, a piggy with spectacles being one of her favorites and mine as well.

Alex spontaneously started doing better with his blood sugar the other day--proof that God answers prayer :) God bless you, everyone, thank you again for your prayers and please keep them coming!
