First of all, Jeremy found the diamond in our bed. As in, between the sheets. Which makes absolutely no sense at all, because on Monday I tore the top sheet completely off the bed before making it. Wouldn't I have seen it then? So weird! To be honest, I was in more shock when he showed me he had found it than when I found out it was missing! I didn't think there was any way I was seeing that diamond again. It's good I have children and a husband with much more faith than I have. They had been praying every single prayer that we would find "Mom's diamond." (: Yay for answered prayers!!!
I found a few cute pics of Jesi I had to share:
"Raking" leaves in her pajamas |
Jesi got Sophi all dressed up warm and brought her out to play without being asked. Notice all the warm clothes, but no socks or shoes! |
The sign posted on our door on Thanksgiving |
Jesi had to drink some nasty stuff for a medical procedure. She hated it, so she alternated between it and a cup of Sprite. It was hilarious to watch her go back and forth at the speed of lightning. She was such a trooper! |
Great stuff here - absolutely love the bare feet and the sign!!
ReplyDeleteAnd OK - at the risk of being a tad "irreverent" and while I know it's not your Faith tradition - let me put in a plug for St. Anthony (the patron of lost things / causes - he and I are frequent flyers!!)
You make the second family who has lost a diamond in the past week (the first the wife of a co-worker who is recovering from a critical auto accident and will be in re-hab for another couple months) - both of which have been found - both of which were found in places that had already been searched once before (in her case the bottom of a laptop bag) - and both of which I mentioned to St. Anthony (who also has a Franciscan connection - and y'all know I was a Franciscan for years!!).
So - I'll go with the St. Anthony going to the Boss on our behalf and asking Him for just a little fiddling with our 'mortal world' so we could get just a little thing...but now I gotta go light another candle (...it's a Catholic thang...)
love you guys - HOORAH -
aus and co.
Congrats on the diamond!
