“O Thou who art the all pervading glory of the world, we bless Thee for the power of beauty to gladden our hearts.
We praise Thee that even the least of us may feel a thrill of the creative joy when we give form and substance to our thoughts and, beholding our handiwork, find it good and fair. “.

I cried out to Him with my mouth; His praise was on my tongue.
If I had cherished sin in my heart, the LORD woud not have listened and heard my voice in prayer.
Praise be to God, Who has not rejected my prayer or withheld His love from me!" Psalm 66:16-20

A better day......

Hubby got lots of attention today to all of his needs, and I feel much better about the care that they provide. 

After a first full day of residency, I treated him to a visit from Piper Jean.  He was thrilled after not seeing her for 5 days, and she was tickled to finally know where Papa was.  Of course, people in the hallways had a fit over her, too, and she warned Papa when a man in a wheel chair came to visit and didn't announce himself.  It was cute.........she's a good little guard dog !

    Thankful for a good day for you all! I love that you took Piper! They say that having a pet, or pets visit in the nursing home is therapeutic and good for the residents. SIL is an OT for nursing homes and hubby's aunt is allowed to have a cat.

    Hope today is as good as yesterday! Drive carefully!

    Dear Dolly, I hope your hubby has a speedy recovery by God's grace. Yes, nursing homes are very sad places. My Mom was in one for 4 years....I tried to take care of her at home but it just didn't work. I'm glad your husband is on the recovery side of things. I will pray for you too. Your little dog is so sweet. Since my hubby has retired, I don't have the time and inclination towards my blog I used too. I'm ready to jump in the car whenever he wants to go out. Its a different world now that he's home...I'm loving it. Though...my blogging and cello and spinning wheel are way on the back burner...smile.
