God then made man.
The Italian for their beauty.
The French for fine food.
The Swedes for intelligence.
The Jew for religion.
And on and on until he looked at what
he had created and said,
"This is all very fine but no one is having fun.
I guess I'll have to make me an Irishman."

Rose's Room
This is Rose's new room...her favorite color is yellow. I tried to bring in the theme of roses..on the spread, and pictures....we posted a yellow rose on the door of her room
We moved some of her furniture form her house, and her favorite plants.
we set up her tv and a chair...just in case she wanted to get away from us.
We painted this short wall with blackboard paint so we could leave her messages...
the polka dot board is a bullitin board for pictures and cards.

He makes the Rose...
the object of his care....My Heavenly father watches over me......
Today my mother in law, Rose moves in with us. Not somthing that we ever imagined would happen in our wildest dreams, but here we are. We talked of my mom living with us...many times...Bob used to invite her (Neva) at least once a year since we were married....lol and for the record...he says she can still move in at any time.
Sarah has graciously given up her room....because it was yellow (Rose's favorite color) and because it is the closest to the door, bathroom & family room...we have labled our drawers to help her find things... the last 6 weeks have been full of moving, sorting, painting, cleaning...preparation...but how do you prepare for your life to change drastically? My days of solitude...will be no longer...our family times, will always include grandma. Will she learn to like movies....it's kind of a Maus thing (she will have her own tv, just in case as well)
What about meals...we eat different kinds of things than she is used to.
I cook with gas she always had electric...will she manage to make soup and things when I am not here? I worry about that...too much change for her AND how I can adapt to meet her needs.
Lots to think about...but this I know....
MY HEAVENLY FATHER WATCHES OVER US ALL!!! AND HIS GRACE IS SUFFICIENT FOR ME.....
