To GOD be the glory !!!!!!!

Early Thursday, Nov 6 we lost a precious person in our lives, Grandpa Roberts, he had battled colon cancer for almost 9 months, I plan in the upcoming weeks put some pictures of him and Jeremy on his blog. Grandpa Roberts LOVED Jeremy with all his heart, they had a really special relationship as me and him did and I'm grateful for that in our lives and I will miss him deeply.

That is one of my favorite hymns to sing, To GOD be the glory great things he has done, so loved he the world that he gave us his son. I was blessed this past week with an opportunity to go back to Salt Lake City, UT for a conference on sibshops. I love Utah it's a beautiful site. I loved the drive from the airport, the walk to the restaurant, looking out my motel window, the conference there were mountains everywhere. I really learned lot about what siblings of children with special needs deal with, they deal with lot of the same thing that parents of children with special needs. It breaks my heart, but grateful that we were able to start sibshops here in Tulsa on a monthly basis. I was glad to get back in Oklahoma especially after we landed in Denver, CO and it was 28 degrees and I could see my breath while waiting on my luggage. I landed back in Tulsa at 11:59pm. Jeremy was sleeping when I got home but I made enough noise he woke up and came into the bedroom. When we got up the next morning he seemed excited to see me but looked right past me to get my mobile phone. Jeremy made it clear to me he was ready to eat, so we came into the kitchen, he climbed upon the cabinet by the toaster and was sitting there playing with my phone and I got really close and kissed his little cheek and said, "Whatcha doing?" and he looks at me while playing with my phone and says, "Nuttin". Yes, Utah was so beautiful but I am a born OKIE and tend to talk that way. Thank GOD for mommies who love their daughters and even when we have children of our own and in our 40's she came and took care of Jeremy, kept my house clean and did some of my laundry. Thank you GOD for little boy's who miss their mommies when they are gone. Thank you GOD for all the beautiful, wondrous world that you created. Thank you GOD for sending your son Jesus and that you deemed me important enough to save me from my sins.
