Blessings, Blessings, Everywhere!



You don’t have to ask me to come to dinner twice, especially when it’s at one of my children’s homes!  Yesterday, my daughter in law called and invited us to dinner at their home so of course we accepted.  Plus, her sister wanted to give me a pedicure!  Now really, who could say no to all of that!  And my grandson is there!  So it was a win all the way around. 

What a wonderful meal, and healthy on top of that with an exquisite dessert afterwards!  We’re all fairly new to the keto way of eating and quite frankly I was ready to throw in the towel, but last night gave me just what I needed, a delicious meal plus dessert that were keto recipes and ideas for more recipes!  That was just a little side note, my real reason of writing is to give praise to God and to thank my wonderful daughter in law for her love to our family!  Oh, did I menion that she was willing and even wanted to move 2 doors down from me, her mother in law!?  Now, that is totally amazing to me and I will be forever grateful. 

Oh, did I mention that my other son is moving back to Southern CA from Oregon?  He will be driving distance for me again when I want to take a quick trip by myself or when Joe and I both drive down.  I love to fly but Joe doesn’t so it makes it really nice to have them closer!  Plus, I LOVE the beaches in the San Diego area, much warmer and it will be so good for them to be able to be out and about with Ruby more during the year and not house bound due to weather.  We all love this move!

And then, last but not least by any means, my daughter and son in law have decided not to move away to Washington at this time, so we get to hang out more as she is only 15 minutes away.

This has been and still is a season of blessings, not to say that there aren’t trials and challenges in life, there are, but the blessings far outweigh them right now.  The God who knows and love us knows just what our hearts need.  King David says in Psalm 27 “I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.” I can attest to this truth!  But when life is tipped on the difficult side I remind myself of this truth and that he loves me and is always with me and that it’s not all about me, he is working in this world to bring about his glory.
