Hello Cuties, this afternoon while my kids were together loading and packing things up, for the clean up tomorrow at Shelby's, Ashley overheard her brother Brian talking to Shelby on the cell.
Remember I told you he had to bring his wheelchair kids up this way, to stay? Well, Sam hasn't been able to get in Shelby's sister Sheila's shower and really wanted a bath. Poor Sam. Anyway, Ashley told Brian to put Shelby on speaker.
Ashley asked Shelby if his van was here ,Sheila could bring him to her house and use Avery's shower. He said No, he had brought the kids up here in the van, but he had to return home in it. Ashley told him, no problem, she would go get Sam.
Shelby asked her if she could load Sam. Ashley told him yes.I don't know if I ever told you but since Covid Ashley found a van that now she can drive Avery straight into the van, in her wheelchair, so she doesn't have to lift her at all. (God provides)
So before dark, Ashley went to Sheila's and got Sam. Even though Ashley had no electricity, she has a tankless hot water heater and they connected the generator, for Sam to have hot water for his shower.
I know how good he must have felt and one more thing Shelby doesn't have to worry about. God is good. So are my children. I know we all are proud of our kids but my kids really pull together and try to help where they can and God is providing.
I just thought I'd share this with you and also ask prayer for safety tomorrow, for their trip, and their work.
Love to all-Toogie
Two of my grandsons are the same age as Sam, I think about 24 and one is a couple years older. I remember when Sam could still walk and play baseball in my front land. Sam would hit and the boys would run for him if he couldn’t. They always treated Sam so good.
The van they had before served them at the time. Avery was light enough when they first got it but as she got heavier they realized they needed something she could stay in her chair and ride. Like you and I know, God fills our need.
Millie.
