Improvement

This morning I have seen a great deal of improvement with Emery's health.  When I woke up, he had already opened the windows and doors and made is way around the house a bit.  How blessed we are to have bodies that can heal.    This morning as I went about my morning chores, feeding the animals, planting a few more seeds in the fall garden, hanging out the freshly washed woven rugs we have here and there in the house, I kept thinking about how merciful God is to restore our health when it fails.  He created within us the ability to regenerate damaged cells.   He didn't have to do that.    The birds were singing, the chickens were clucking, the rooster announcing his presence in only the way a rooster can.  The ducks were quawking and the dog was barking as he chased his very long tail round and round.  Normal morning sounds for us, but so refreshing after being in the hospital with Emery for 3 days, where the sights and sounds were all so different.    I love feeling the grass under my feet and smelling the hay stacked up in the barn.   I love walking to the chicken house, only to stop in my tracks to watch squirrels at play or listen to the crows call one another.   I love to smell fresh air and watch the water from the hose fall like rain as I water the garden.   I love the simple things of life and most of all I love seeing health and vitality restored to the love of  my life, my dear gentle man who daily inspires me.
