Ohio Trip - Day 3

Thursday, April 18 - Day 3
Here are some of the kitties that my mom takes care of.  They are feral.  My parents have been able to spay and neuter five cats, which is so awesome!


This is Gerald.  He and his brother were two kittens that a mama kitty had and are now grown.
He looks just like his mama.


This is Pinky.  He is a handsome boy.



This is Hansel - the brother to Gerald (formerly named Gretl until they found out he was a boy :).  Pretty markings!


There are two more that have been spayed/neutered.  Thomas and Mama (mother to Hansel and Gerald).  I wasn't able to get a good photo of them on this trip.


Visit with my dad.  We took him on a stroll.






When you ask your sister to take a few pictures...


They have a pretty garden area that you can walk on the second floor.




We also were able to go and see the Occupational and Physical Therapy units where my dad is doing his rehab.











They have a mini apartment where those in rehab can practice the things that they will be doing when they go home.  Making a bed, doing dishes, cooking, doing laundry, etc.  
They also have a mini store they can practice shopping at.  They even have a car where they can practice getting in and out and even driving.  
I am grateful my dad can get this rehab at this great facility.  God has been good.


We continue to work on the house to ready it for my dad.  We found this painting I made maybe in grade school or middle school?  Whenever, it sure is old!


And this.  It was from the Ponderosa Ranch.  They bought this when we took them to the Ponderosa Ranch in Nevada when we moved there in 2003.  This was where Bonanza was filmed.  It no longer exists which makes this more special.

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...

Ten Tips for Sunday School Teachers

Ideas for Sunday School Teachers: 1.  Write a note to each student and mail it to their home. 2.  Visit the child in his home and bring a small treat. 3.  Make a special treat once a month for your students on Sunday. 4.  Have a Sunday School class activity on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. 5.  Pray for your students. 6.  Have a monthly or quarterly contest for your students.  Include bringing their Bible, saying memory verses, attendance, etc.  Award small prizes. 7.  Have a special craft once a month. 8.  Rev up your teaching time!  Use props such as costumes, pictures, videos.  Make your lesson time come alive.  Teach your lesson 2-3 times during the week out loud – you will be amazed at how you will be able to teach it to your students – not just following the words in the book. 9.  After the lesson, be creative!  Students should not just be sitting and waiting for Sunday School hour ...
