Your Thoughts and Prayers are Needed. THANKS!

USS Abraham Lincoln
Dear Family and Friends,   Prayers are needed for my Granddaughter Brooke and her husband, Tristan.  Tristan is in the Navy and is currently deployed on the USS Abraham Lincoln which has been sent to the Middle East to help with the horrible problems happening in that area involving Iran....   I am sure you have read  or heard about this on the news recently.  SCARY situation for sure!!!!

Brooke is obviously very upset and worried.   AND --to make matters harder,   Brooke and Tristan's second baby is due the end of this month.  Even though she and Vivian (almost 16 months old now),  are with her mother during Tristan's deployment,   she obviously misses him so much... Prayers for Tristan and all of the men and women on the USS Abraham Lincoln --but also for Brooke as she brings Little Veronica (Roni) into the world soon...  Thanks for your good thoughts and prayers.

Here are some pictures of that sweet family.  Hope you enjoy them.

Having Fun



Aren't they just a precious family?









*****************************
ONE MORE PRAYER REQUEST and an ANNOUNCEMENT

I am having Carpal Tunnel Surgery on Thursday,  May 16,   on my dominant (left) hand.  Since I won't be able to use that hand for awhile,  I am taking a Blog  Break.... BUT--I'll be back soon  (hopefully with no numb and tingly fingers)!!!!  Fun Fun!!!

Hugs,

  4. Betsy, If I had to be anywhere in the Mideast, I would prefer the USS Abraham Lincoln with its defensive capabilities and firepower. Of course our prayers are with them and all service men and women who are at risk around the world. Best of luck with the carpal tunnel surgery. Should be no problem! I've had both wrists done already...almost instant relief... Now recovering...not so quickly...from similar surgery on my left wrist that involved the thumb... Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

  12. Prayers for all of you. I went out with Kelly tonight and as we were getting in the car she rolled the window up and my finger was on the rim and it got smashed to smelteries and it looks terrible and it hurts.

  13. May the good Lord bless this sweet young family and keep the Daddy of it--Tristan safe and out of harm's way and may He keep him focused and brave and STRONG for our country's military and his important job, but also STRONG for his little family and the soon to be arriving little baby. May the good Lord bless and protect this young mother and help her stay calm and content and worry free while her husband is deployed, and free from anxiety so her pregnancy and delivery will be a good and safe one! I just know that God will take care of them, our son is ALSO ACTIVE MILITARY AND DEPLOYED PILOT and Tristan is on a good one, the Abraham.

  15. I'm sorry they are going through this. During WW II, my mother's dad and and her husband (my dad) were in the Navy. They made it back but I know from how she looked when she told me about it that it was a stressful time for her.

    Best of luck on your surgery! Check your desk height and such so you never stress your wrists again.

  21. Oh, Betsy, just now reading this...I hope you are doing okay with the surgery. roger had it but I cannot remember how long it took him to recover. He had it on both hands at the same time. I will start including you in my prayers and also Tristan and Brooke. That would be so hard on all concerned.
