Happy 15th birthday to Jerod…Tanya and Daniel’s oldest. Jerod is a gifted artist, excellent student, and truly a good young man. He’s becoming his Papa’s right hand man out in the workshop as he’s learning some of the skills to “turning” wood and making pens, etc. In fact, he made his first one yesterday and it turned out really good. Happy Birthday, Jerod and I am so proud to be your Mimi…love you bunches!
It continues to be dangerously hot here and today is suppose to be our hottest one yet…actual 105 with a heat index of 110 – 115…and the boys continue to play in their baseball tournaments. Hopefully, it will cool off before long, but this is something none of us can control so we just have to find ways of staying cool and helping others stay cool. We’ve had to give up on trying to keep the plant life watered as we are now restricted to what we can water. Lord, please send us some rain!!!
Lorin has begun his 5 week trip and fulfilling a life long dream. I pray he will enjoy every minute of it while hiking, climbing, and running from the bears! We enjoy doing these same things but on a much smaller scale…like a real bed at night, hot showers, and a toilet with a handle!
Guess that’s about all I know for now…going to a ballgame this afternoon even in this heat which ought to be a memory maker…then we’ll be celebrating the birthday boy. Have a good weekend and let’s all pray for rain and cooler weather for all of us that so desperately need it. Love to all.
Blessings…….
