I am paying the price for stripping the shelves and packing 8 boxes to be moved to the new house. In fact, my back hurt so much I asked Tim D. to preach in my place. I am too old to have done so much.

Today was visiting day for parents so there was much joy.

Sara Ortiz came by. She was raised here, college graduate and a graphic designer for a hospital.

It is only rest in God’s presence3 and grace that will make you a joyful and patient parent.
