Thank You and Happy Birthdays

I want to thank you all so much for all your prayers. I can't even begin to tell you how much I appreciate each and every one of you. My situation is still unresolved but I have seen God's hand in these circumstances and I know it is a result of your prayers. Thank you again. I just love you all. What a wonderful bunch I get to spend eternity with.

I have been extremely busy organizing a Tea Party (Taxed Enough Already protest) in my area and watching my granddaughters full time so I haven't had any opportunity for blogging. I am sorry for not visiting much lately, but I will come by your blogs to thank you personally for your prayers as time permits. I hope that doesn't sound rude.

Now I want to wish a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to TWO of my very dear bloggy friends. It's no April Fools joke, this is the real deal.

My good friend ADHD-Jo (aka Mary) at Monkey's are Funny is having a party at her blog today. Of course she didn't know about the party, it was a little surprise to her. Her sister Chatty Kelly and I hi-jacked her blog and poor Mary is at our mercy. :D

Go visit her blog and wish her lots of birthday blessings. She's a lot of fun and "you'll laugh so much your sides will ache, your heart will go pitter pat." I wonder how many of you know what tv cartoon song that is from.

My other good friend Stephanie at TruthSharer is also celebrating her birthday today. I just found out about it myself. Stephanie is a wonderful lady who loves the LORD with all her heart. She is a wonderful encourager and Prayer Warrior! God is doing some incredible things through her at the Shepherd's Walk at Sweetbriar.

Please go visit Stephanie and wish her many blessings for her birthday too. You will be so glad you met her. When I first met Stephanie through an email she sent me, we couldn't stop *talking*. :D She is such a delight and I know you will love her as much as I do.

No need to apologize Edie, and no you do not sound rude at all. I'm betting most of have been in the same boat. I know I have. Not to mention, I know how hard it is to take care of grandchildren full time. I'll be sure and stop to wish your sister and Stephanie a happy birthday.

Hang on and hang in there, Edie!! God's always working, and you're already seeing His plans unfold.

No, not rude--we've all been there--

Thank you again for helping me hijack her blog. I did give her the password, as I knew once she had comments, she wouldn't delete the post. :-) I talked to her and she is humbly excited. Yay.

Thanks again! you rock!

Edie, Some of us have deliberately taken time away from blogging. You certainly deserve all the time you need and like the others I don't think you have it in you to be rude.

I appreciate you so much and will continue to pray for you. One of my prayers is being answered this weekend after about 5 years so don't give up (hope your doesn't take that long). GOD is in control and with all these people praying for you, the enemy doesn't have a chance.
God bless you,
Luv u,
AliceE. :)

Hang in there Edie, we are all pulling for you, sort of like Felix the cat, the wonderful wonderful cat, you'll laugh so much your sides will ache watching Felix....The wonderful cat. Did I just show my age?

I just prayed for you and your situation again so I popped on over. Glad I did. I love you and take the time you need to handle what's important.

Love you.

Keep on keeping on! You are a wonderful woman of God and He has you in His faithful grip! Be blessed.

Still praying,
