I am blessed with a wonderful husband, who is very thoughtful. I was sitting at the table reading when Ed came home from work on Friday. He had in his hand a bag from the PX and he handed it to me and said "this is for all the times I didn't get you a gift for Valentines or other times that I missed getting you something." Although I can't really remember not getting something from him on Valentines Day or any other time for that matter, he says he didn't get me anything this past Valentines Day but that isn't true, he got me a puppy, Liberty, and I love her. She is such good company while Ed is gone during the day and gives me a good excuse to get out of this apartment and go for nice walks and enjoy God's creation.
Anyway, back to the PX bag. I opened the bag and I was excited....this is what I saw inside....
AN IPAD AND CASE!!! I was so excited and have been really enjoying it. I put my books from my kindle library on it and it is great. I love typing on it, it is so easy.Thank you Ed!!! What a great surprise!!!
Today I have been shopping at the Dollar Store and here is what I came home with.....
TOYS!!! TOYS!!!! My little man is coming to visit his grandmama and pappy next week. Hannah and Isaiah, both a blessing from God, are on "spring break" next week and will be here and I am excited!!! We had to have some toys for him to play with and books to look at, although I am sure he will find his own "toys" while he is exploring. I am sure Liberty will be one of his favorite "toys". LOL
It is a cool, rainy day here in Columbus,GA, though it is not raining now. We are very thankful for the rain, it has helped clear the pollen from the air. Thank you God for the rain. Yesterday was also a rainy day so I spent much of the day after church, lunch, and walking the dog reading. My grandma sent me a book that she received for a Christmas gift from my parents called "Breaking Night."
It is a true story about a lady, named Liz Murray. It is the story of how she grows up in a home where both of her parents were drug addicts but how she goes from a dysfunctional home, or as we should say an "ungodly" home to go to Harvard. As far as I know this is not a "Christian" book. I am not sure if Liz Murray is a Christian or not but it is a good story so far. It is a book that I don't want to put down. Reading is one of my hobbies. I went to the Kindle store and downloaded a lot of free books. My kindle was a birthday gift from Ed, another nice surprise. He is a good gift "picker". LOL
If you want a good book to read, try "Breaking Night", it is very good, at least so far.
You better read, read, read now because once Isaiah gets to your house, there isn't going to be as much reading! Of course, we (you and me) can sit down with some hot tea and read while he naps. See you soon.
