Miss Marilyn

Hello!! This lo is of a very sweet lady that God sent to as an angel 15 years ago. My dd was born 10 weeks early. When I brought her home from the hospital she weighed just 3 pounds and 9 ozs. Honestly!! The dr told me that they would send a nurse to the house to weigh her each day for the first couple weeks. Miss Marilyn was the nurse!! She was so wonderful!! She was so helpful and encouraging and helped me find things that I couldn't buy at the store...like diapers the size of a deck of a cards to fit a 3 pound baby!! Plus she let me be the mom. After only a couple days she realized that I was capable of weighing dd each day, so she left the scales with me and then just stopped in every other day. (It helped that I keep great records/notes...I wrote EVERYTHING that I did with the baby, How much she weighed in the morning, evening. What time I gave her a bath. How much she ate, the time and how long it took her....so much they want to watch) Anywho, we became good friends and have stayed in touch the past 15 years. We found out that she was a wonderful christian lady!! I'm sad to say that our sweet Miss Marilyn past away last week. We will miss her, as will many many other people who's lives she has touched!! Today was her birthday. She would have been 69.

Thanks so much for stopping by!!
Have a wonderful week!!

Until next time.................tootles!!

Sketches in Thyme

Hello!!

Boy has it been a long time since I've been here!!

I have been scrapping, but all 

the challenges I've been doing have been

at sb dot come and I just post them to my gallery!!

Here's a lo I did based on a sketch over at 

Sketches In Thyme:

I'll also share some of my favorites that I've done

in November:

The journaling for this lo:

“When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'."
I'm whispering "I was lost, now I'm found and forgiven."

When I say... "I am a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say. "I am a Christian" I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not claiming to be perfect,
my flaws are far too visible But, God believes I am worth it.

When I say... "I am a Christian" I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches so I call upon His name.

When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner who received God's good grace, somehow.”
