My Latest Prayer Shawl

Yesterday I delivered my latest prayer shawl to a 90 year old lady from our church who was having surgery today to clear out her carotid arteries (she did fine and is expected to be released in a day or so). My pastor picked me up, and my grandson was with me so he went along, too. At the end of the visit, Pastor Jeff wanted to offer a prayer, so I said, "Kindon, come over here and let's pray." He came over, took our hands, and stood quietly with his head bowed through the entire prayer. Not bad for a three year old who normally runs at warp speed!

Later on we went to choir rehearsal, and Kindon went along. I had brought along an old "Wee Sing" book for him so he would have his own "music". He walked in like he owned the place, sat right down, opened up his music, and sang along with the adult choir. Maybe soon we'll have to teach him to read music.

Here is the prayer shawl that we delivered. It was made from a full skein of JoAnn Sensations Rainbow Boucle.


So one down, and three more in the pipeline. For some reason I never get quite caught up.
