A SPECIAL DAY FOR NANASEE

TODAY, I WAS NOT ABLE TO GO TO SIT WITH BOBBIE JO AS I HAD TO FINISH THE PURCHASE ON OUR NEW FURNITURE. WHILE I HAD A WONDERFUL TIME PICKING OUT ALL THE NEW STUFF, ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT WAS HOW BOBBIE JO WAS DOING. I HATE TO LEAVE HER THERE ALL ALONE, EVEN THOUGH SHE IS STRONG. I WANT TO BE THERE EACH TIME THE DOCTOR COMES IN, MAKE SURE SHE IS EATING, AND DO ALL THE LITTLE THINGS I CAN TO MAKE HER MORE COMFORTABLE. AT TEH FURNITURE STORE, I KEPT THINKING " I WONDER IF BOBBIE WOULD ARGUE WITH ME ABOUT MY CHOICE? OR, THIS IS SUCH A LOVELY COMFORTER, I WONDER IF BOBBIE JO WOULD LIKE HER ROOM DONE IN THIS COLOR." I GUESS THAT IS WHAT WE MAMAS DO. GOOD NEWS IS, SINCE THE FINGERS FURNITURE STORES ARE GOING OUT OF BUSINESS, WE REALLY GOT SOME FABULOUS DEALS ON THE FURNITURE. THE MANAGE R OF THE STORE SEEMED TO LIKE ME, AND KEPT SAYING THINGS LIKE, "WELL, IF YOU LIKE THAT ONE, LET ME SEE WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU". I TELL YOU, I WAS A GIGGLING FOOL OVER SOME OF THE PRICES HE GAVE ME. AT LEAST WHEN BOBBIE COMES HOME, WE MAY HAVE THE HOUSE A BIT MORE FINISHED AND ABLE TO FURNISH SOME OF THE ROOMS. THE ONLY ROOM LEFT IS JARED'S ROOM AND WE ARE GOING TO MAKE A DAY OF IT GOING TO BUY HIS STUFF WHEN HIS MAMA CAN GO WITH US. IT SEEMS THAT HEAVENLY FATHER IS ALWAYS LOOKING OUT FOR US, I AM SO THANKFUL FOR HIS CARE. OH, AND MY BROTHER KEN, (HE IS SO SWEET) HAS A BARN FULL OF BIKES AT HIS COUNTRY PLACE, AND IS BRINGING JARED A BIKE SO THAT HE CAN RIDE WITH THE OTHER KIDS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. (JARED IS THE ONLY ONE THAT IS STILL IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, HE THINKS HE IS SO COOL) I OFFERED TO BUY HIM A NEW BIKE AND HE TOLD ME " NO NANA, I HAVE A BIKE AT MY DAD'S AND BESIDES WE HAVE ENOUGH TO THINK ABOUT WITHOUT BUYING A BIKE." WHAT AN ANGEL. ANYWAY, KEN IS BRINGING HIM ONE. WELL, NO DIFFICULT NEWS TO REPORT, JUST LIKE AS IT OCCURS. MORE TOMORROW, LOVE, NANASEE
