GRATEFUL FRIDAY !!!

Early wake up call from d-in-love as she dropped g-daughter off at 7am.  G-daughter went back to sleep and I rested until it got daylight outside before doing the chores.  Next week it will already be daylight when they get here so I need to change my schedule so I can keep the animals, who don't recognize daylight savings time changes, on their same schedule.
She was insistent on helping with her first bottle !!!  "Just one more minute,Neena" !!!

After she went down for another morning nap I finished my morning activities including a walking video and then got things set up to begin baking after g-daughter's lunch feeding.
She is such a happy baby today.

While she watched I baked 12 caramel, 7 pound, 2 blackberry wine and 1 pumpkin. I had to stop and give g-daughter a bottle at 2:00 then continued baking until almost 4:00 before I turned the ovens off today.
As she sat in this little vibrating seat and happily watched my kitchen activities it brought the last 9 years back in a rush of memories of this exact same scenario with g-son. Here are some comparison pics with g-son in the green seat from October 2006 at 2 weeks old and g-daughter in the blue seat today at 7 weeks old.

As I looked at these pics I am humbled with thankfulness that God has blessed me with these two kids and even more  humbled just thinking that I am blessed to be doing the same things I did 9 years ago !!!
I am a blessed person and I stay in humble disbelief that my  God loves me this much !!!

After chores #2 son came  by to check all the fluids in his old truck and found things were okay so he is advertising it for sale. It is a good looking truck.

I spent the evening icing cakes and getting things ready for market.
It has been a nice day today with sunshine and mid 60's temps but rain is coming tomorrow night for a couple days keeping things moist.
More and more grateful everyday to a loving, living Lord.
Good Night and God Bless.
