Caring for the elderly is not for the faint-hearted but I was feeling faint-hearted today...
An unplanned shower in the middle of baking cookies and fixing lunch, is not exactly my idea of fun. It makes me wish to go back to taking care of triplets and 3 Labs (minus the Labs!). Thanks to Mom, the cookies got baked and lunch on the table while I was occupied elsewhere. (I will spare you the gory details.)
However, this is where God has called me, now, and I count it a privilege to care for Dad & Mom in their later years. No, it's not always fun. It's not always easy, but still...I love them!
"But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint." Isa.40:31
