**Prayers for Loved Ones**

This is not my normal update and I usually do not post my personal information on my Store Blog but this time I am going to. The power of prayer can work miracles for loved ones so that is what I am asking for from ALL of YOU. Please say special prayers for these loved ones.

My Mother-in- Law Dee

She is very terminal with only a few months left to share with us. If you knew her this is so unfair. She is still very positive and so are we.

Please pray for her.

Another one of my Relatives, Sharon, who became ill and was in the hospital for a couple of months and she is now home. She still has many hills to climb.

Please pray for her.

We have a very close family friend her grandson who is only about 6 weeks old is at the Children's hospital because the poor little baby has become very sick.

His name is Tyler Please pray for him.

A Dear friend of mine Judge Sturtz, his wife recently passed away to become an Angel. They were married for almost 60 years! What special years they shared and to have created many beautiful memories together .

Please pray for him.

I know we are all busy and life seems to pass us by with our busy life styles but please take the time to seek out old friends. Spend time with your family and friends and do the things you want to do. Even if it is the little things like reading at the park, dipping your feet in the water, watching a bird make a nest for her babies, baking cookies with the grand kids or just a phone call. We never know when the Lord will call us so enjoy what you have now.

~Dream as if you will live Forever, Live as if you only have Today~

God Bless
