God is really too kind to me - even when I'm disappointed and possibly whiny. I was hoping today would work out a certain way so that Graham and I could go out for dinner before our night out. We have nursing from 7:30 PM to 7:30 AM tomorrow. That in itself is such a gift. Anyway, given that it's later when we can leave I wasn't sure if it was worth it to book a B&B and the one I wanted said it was unavailable on its online booking. The thought came to me that I should just call anyway so I did and they had two rooms, including the one I wanted. Thank You Lord!
We've had a good day. Graham's parents are here to spend the night to take care of Isaac. We'll have a lovely dinner together before we leave.
Do people actually get to the point of being disappointed about something and yet being completely content knowing that God has something else in store? I don't like the idea of having zero expectations so that they are never crushed. But time and time again I've been disappointed about something and then something better happens. Is this just part of the journey of increasing my faith in a God who loves me and has good gifts for me?
Time has passed. Dinner is ready.

| This is Isaac's "game" - I think it's modern dance |
Isaac and I had fun on our porch today. It was just raining a little. Josiah was able to go out for a stroller ride this afternoon.
Josiah is eating well of late. He enjoyed some small pieces of strawberry at lunch and some of Grandma's peaches for dinner, among other things.
Thank you for your prayers!
Blessings,
Elizabeth

Just as Death and Destruction are never satisfied, so human desire is never satisfied.
