Now Sometimes surprises happen suddenly and totally unexpected. One of our church families lives up the road and up the hill from us. I don't think Tawnya has ever been to our house before. Late yesterday afternnoon a friend and I were visiting in the sunroom and I heard some voices come through the door. There was Tawyna and two of her little boys, probably number two and three of their five small children. Tawyna stood in the door way to the sunroom and explained that she was finished with the yard work at her home and that her husband was still mowing so she took the kids over to do whatever I wanted done in my yard. Eureka!. I didn't skip a beat, I knew the garden to the east of the sunroom and back of the main part of the house was full of weeks. Tawyna looked out the window and said, Yep, sure enough. Some forty to forty five minutes later, the garden was clean and my spirit lifted a mile. Those little boys were learning at their mother's side to help a neighbor in time of need and also was teaching them what the difference between a perennial and weed is. What a good mom! Thanks Tawyna and boys. Anyone that pulls out weeds for me is special. I'm so grateful.

Is anyone else watching the British Open? Tom Watson, age fifty nine, is doing so well. I find myself praying for the man. He maintains incredible control and shows immense humility. What a witness for good sportsmanship. At the moment he is one under but hopefully he can pull it off. What a historic event it would be. We will know the outcome at the end of the day.

Our friend Joni, the new mommy in the header picture, was taken to the hospital last evening. She is suffering from an infection due to some residue left in her uterus after the birth. We are asking for prayer that this will not become worse as Joni is threatened by infections. Joni's dad is with her at the hospital, her husband came home and is trying to get some rest and Linda, Joni's mom is caring for the baby. Just when we thought all was well. God bless the medication to her body and rid it of infection.
