A Wonderful Suprise!!!

~Krista from Mom's bedside.~


~Mom with Mrs. Criss~

Today went normal as usual, chores, school and breakfast...but before Teddy and I started on our math, Adam came in the house to tell us to get in the van, we are taking Mom for a ride! Sure enough there ws Momma all ready to go in the van! I was wondering where we were going, until we stopped in the Crisses driveway!..We pulled up and Mrs. Criss saw us through the blinds, we saw a lady jumping up and down in the house and running towards the door!!! She was very excited and suprised! Mr. Criss and Rebekah were out, so we stayed there for 15 more minutes and talked! Finally they pulled in the driveway, Rebekah Criss came in first and smiled, but didn't tell Mr. Criss anything, when Mr. Criss came in, he didn't see Mom at first, but when he did, his mouth opened wide! He was very suprised! It was fun and exciting to suprise our friends!
       We headed back to the nursing home after our little adventure ride with Mom. Teddy, William and I headed back home to make lunch, then Dad would follow with the van after.
Dad came home and told us what to do, then he and Adam left for B-ham to get some groceries and supplies.
Teddy, Will and I came back here (CCC, Christian Care Center) just when Mom was doing her speech therapy. So we got to watch what the lady did with her. She gave Momma clues to a certain item or thing, then Mother would have to tell her what the thing was, Mom was very good at it! (She is taking a nap right now.) Praise the Lord that Mother is able to do more! Thank you all for your prayers! May we continue without ceasing. Also thank you all for the meals!

  1. It has been a complete blessing to watch this miracle in progress and to have a small part in caring for your mother while she is recovering here at CHCC! I am amazed every day when I come to work and see the progress that happens OVERNIGHT! God is amazing!
