embracing HUGS with Great Grandma

Answered Prayers

We visited and brought smiles...and enjoyed each other...yet grandma struggled to hear...

The children gathered as Jaren said a prayer to help grandma find her hearing aid that had been lost for most of the week. The cleaning ladies of her assisted living were unable to find the priceless plastic device that helps give our grandma the sweet sounds that she hears. Grandma fell near her bedroom door and was not able to find the hearing aid that tumbled out of her ear.

Sure enough...a small voice prompted us to look right under where our grandma was sitting...her tiny hearing aid was caught underneath her chair among the metal legs. We exchanged several hugs. We felt so blessed. Grandma Swenson was comforted once more. Grandmas Animal Crackers were handed out in celebration. We gave thanks to our Savior.

KNEELING IS A MARVELOUS THING!
