Amarila

I took this picture of Mom's exceptional plant. It had already bloomed with 4 blooms, then another stalk came up and it has 6 buds, as you can see 4 are out and 2 more are coming. Pretty amazing I thought. I did this to see if I could figure out how to load up pictures and it works. I am quite pleased with myself.
Today is mild +5 not hard to take, but it isn't going to last long, temperatures will plummet this afternoon and then tonight -25 with the wind chill,we will turn into a block of ice brrr.
Church was good, poor Pastor Chad is fighting a cold but he made it through, tonight we have our youth pastor Albert. Herman made great coffee when we got home, the one at church is always so so.
The sleep over with Ariah went really well,except for the 5:45 wake up call, stumbling out into the frigid air and banging my shin bone on the table at the end of our bed, she nicely went back to sleep I on the other hand did not. She woke again at 7:15 for good so it was up and at it.Not use to these early mornings anymore. Better get use to it I know those roosters in the DR are up early. Only 3 more sleeps till we fly out, can't wait. Toodldedoo Levina and Herman
