From Mom's Pen to God's Ear

I was unable to swipe Grandma's prayer for Karis today, so I enlisted Ev's help. She copied it on the sly after lunch, covering her treachery with a book when Gma asked her to step and fetch. Oh, we are a slippery bunch.

I guess this prayer was composed when Mom was preparing for Dad to come home from the hospital.

Thank you father for strength to clean, to get down on the ceramic floor to clean the shower to dust to cook a brisket! Thank you! to drive to rehab, that P_____ is recovering -- to look forward to Church tomorrow to clean the rubber cups on the shower chair. To deliver the mail to P_____ to talk with Helen on the telephone

Thank you for letting the handle fall off the roaster when it did so I was not boiled in brisket juice! Your timing is ineffable! thank you

Thank you father for life and family! for provision
