3/4/26  Goodness does not slip away. People simply stop tending to it. Faith must be fed. Families must be protected. Peace must be practiced.”

“We cannot fix the whole world,  But we can keep our own house in order. We can raise our children to love God. We can forgive quickly. We can work hard. We can share what we have. The world changes when homes change.”  Amish comments

    Prayers requested for Grandson Darel.  He fell off a ladder, only 5 feet from the bottom but he is 6+ feet tall so his head fell 11 feet to a frozen deck.  He has a skull fracture and a couple of small brain bleeds.  The doctor said to expect a full recovery.  He was kept in the hospital overnight under sedation.  We'll know more today.

   An inch or so of snow overnight covered the ice.  Water had already covered the paths of ashes.  I'm hoping today's warm temperature will make the paths safe again.  I'm hoping the warmth will make it pleasant to work in the garage.  It is amazing how fast that garage gets cluttered.  There is still some Christmas stuff that needs to go up on the rafters.

   The plug and cutting order came.  It is all unpacked and watered.  Transplanting will start today.

    May your day be blessed, so much in this world to pray about, I will be thinking about what the Amish say about it, Sally
