Happy Valentine's Day

How thankful I am for such wonderful aides that Jessie has.  While Debbie was at Bible Study with me, Rachel came this morning and she brought ingredients to make Valentine's cupcakes and then had Jessie decorate them.  I think they both had fun, and as you can see from this picture, Jess ate some batter!

Before I went to Bible Study this morning I dropped Memphis off at "school".  He's in training for a couple weeks to see what he knows and how we can get him to work with Jess.  I'm very excited about this. 

Bible Study was special.  The ladies of the church decorated the gym so nice.  Each table had a flower centerpiece, candle and red heart-shaped balloon.  Each place setting had a special card from God reminding us how much He loves us, plus some candy.  They did a very nice job of making each of us feel special. 

Debbie worked with Jessie on a bead project that required her to follow a pattern underneath a clear plastic form, using specific colored beads.  She did really well.  She LOVES these bead projects.  She is very particular where she puts the beads and she knows which color she wants.  As you can see from the picture to the left, she's doing a great job decorating the cupcakes, too. 

Jon has a very sore throat and stopped at an Urgent Care on the way home.  He's driving around trying to find a 24-hour pharmacy for an antibiotic.  The doctor said that even though the strep test came back negative, she'd bet her career it WAS strep.  This seems to be typical for Jon, as he always tests negative for strep, but we're sure he has it because it responds to an antibiotic.  She told him to stay home tomorrow, but that surely won't go over well with his workplace.  He has just 2 more weeks before he'll be eligible for sick leave again.  He used all of his a year ago when Bill passed away.
