Another Day from the Life of Our Mom

August 21,1956---Mother took Martha home with her.  This evening they went to dentist in Bellevue but he didn't have time to check Martha's teeth.

August 21,1957---Sarah went walking!  Everyone jumped up and down and yelled.  Sarah was amazed at the commotion.  Bought girls 3 pairs PJs, 5 pairs pants--Martha 2 pair, Mary a new lunch bucket, 3 towels, 6 wash clothes.  Lois wouldn't go to school.  [Vacation Bible School]

August 21,1958---Bought adjustable bed frame at Bings-$5.15.

August 21,1972---Galatians 5:16 (Living NT)  "I advise you to obey only the Holy Spirit's instructions.  He will tell you where to go and what to do and then you won't always be doing the wrong things your evil nature wants you to."
(Amplified) "......walk and live habitually in the Holy Spirit."

August 21,1980---Psalm 139:16 (Amplified)  "Your eyes saw my unformed substance, and in Your Book all the days of my life were written before ever they took shape, when as yet there was none of them."
(Good News)   "The days allotted to me had all been recorded in your book before any of them ever began."
Malachi 3:16 "......and the Lord listened and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before Him of those who reverenced and worshipfully feared the Lord and who thought on His name."

August 21, 1980---Helped Lydia do corn relish.  Put 3 boxes of dishes in the attic that didn't fit into the smaller dining room cupboard.  Used space where the oak washstand had been.  Ed and Lydia plan to use washstand for their baby's things.  [Lydia was expecting her first child, Matthew.]

  2. I like how brief and to the point her posts were. I love that she wrote scripture that was speaking to her. Her treasures are in heaven - and some here on earth called daughters. <3
