Dad Days ~ July 2016

Some of the staff at the nursing home

have become like FAMILY to us.  

This lady is definitely one of them.

Felicia will always be our "sister"!  

Felicia was with us from the beginning.

She fell in love with Dad and we fell 

in love with her.  The difference is that 

she truly cares.  She brought us much

peace and comfort because we knew

she was going to take care of her "Papa"

when we weren't there.  

God knew we needed Felicia.  

She cried the day Dad had to leave

for the other hospital in Mexia.  

We were so thankful for this woman

and we were so very sad when

she had to move to Dallas:(

I busted Michelle!!!  ha ha!

My mom, sisters and I have not 

relented in our "shifts" for our beloved Dad!

We are there for him...

of course it mostly falls on my mother,

but we do our best to give her

breaks as often as we possibly can!

Speaking of Sweet Grandmother,

this was her 78th birthday...

The men's table;)

We've come to love lots of special

workers at the nursing home...

It's really, really hard to let the good ones go.

They often change jobs though:(

 Dad loves seeing Terry & Troy!

Guess he really always wanted sons;)))

Balancing this life with my parents and with

 the busy, fun, and exciting days for my three 

little ones is tough.  I try my hardest though.    

My parents have always been my absolute

#1 fans NO.MaTTeR.WHaT. 

They are the real deal.  

I am so very thankful for them

and I'll continue to do whatever I 

can to take care of them.
