Her Fave

Posted by Viewfinder (Bradenton, United States) on 21 December 2007 in Art & Design and Portfolio.

This ragged looking red and green ball is my wife's favorite ornament. It is our son's creation from early elementary school years. It was made with string and paste and a balloon in the center which was inflated for roundness, and then deflated and removed when the paste dried. Our son is about to turn 26, so that should tell you how long we've had it hanging on our tree...

And it rings up as #5 in my random "Treasures on our Tree" series. Silent Night, y'all!

Please pray for Bella.

Bella Update: 9/6/08, Sat. A nicely cool Florida morning. Bella likes days like this. Nothing special going on this morning, she's out in the yard now playing with our cat Stella (yes, the names rhyme)... God is good.

Bella's miracle, the one we're all praying for, is still a day by day process; it may take a bit of time for completion. Bella's battle for life, wellness, and needed healing for her heart isn't a sprint but a long-distance run. Bella and I thank you for joining her prayer "team" around the world. Each of you are truly special blessings to us.
