NURSERY DUTY SUNDAY AND ANOTHER STORM

Nursery duty Sunday for hubbie and I at church this morning. We had another lady helping us and we had 6 little ones so it wasn't too bad. It was this lady's first time for nursery duty and it didn't start off very well with 2 of the kids who don't normally cry pitching fits for their mamas but they soon calmed down and the time passed quickly as they all played well together.
#2 son was the only one missing from lunch today as he is at the lake with some friends.
He came in later and took leftovers for supper.
He sold some of his furniture today so all he has left is the dining room set now. He moved more things this afternoon using my van. He brought 1 load up to our basement and took his clothes and other stuff to daughter's.
It is sad to see him go but I want him to be happy and I don't blame him for wanting off the side of this busy road we live on.
Hopefully he can find a quite,nice place like daughter has.
Just after he left taking the load to daughter's the skies opened up again around here. We were pounded with 1 3/4 inches of rain with wind again today. The wind wasn't as bad as yesterday and blew from the opposite direction but there was harder rain, so we have more gulleys in our roads.

Here is hubbie checking out the drive in front of #2 son's house.




When I walked by these Hosta blooms dripping with rain droplets I had to snap a couple photos .


Hubbie and I relaxed for the rest of the evening. We talked about how things are surely changing around here and we do wonder what God has in store for us in the future.
We weren't the only ones getting soaked with rain today as tropical storm Debbie slowly moves around in the gulf.


As we dug the ditches out and turned water away from the new washes getting ready for more predicted rain tomorrow I saw this rainbow .
It was pale and short lived but it was the promise from God of His forever love and care for us.
Good Night and God Bless.

I wish the blessing rain would travel to us. It is drought, ground has cracked in some places, the pasture is almost gone.

Stay safe from the storms.

I just found your blog and I am enjoying reading it. I think the "rainbow" picture at the end says it all - God's promise of His love and care.
