A Season for Tending - Book Review

Another great book by Cindy Woodsmall!! 

Rhoda Byler is a young woman who has a "gift" that others around her do not understand.  They are quick to draw incorrect conclusions and spread rumors that aren't true.  However, she is able to overcome these trials and use her "gift" to help others out.

Rhoda loves her berry patch and canning the fruit to sell.  One morning she found Leah, a young Amish girl, sick and abandoned in her garden.  As she helps Leah, she is introduced to her two brothers, Samuel and Jacob King.

During an unfortunate turn of events, the orchard that the King's own is going to take a loss.  Can Rhoda's canning expertise help them to actually turn a profit?  Will Rhoda fall in love with one of the brothers??  You must read the book to find out.

I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.

The Little Mermaid, Jr.

 Kindergarten classes at Kylah's school went to see The Little Mermaid, Jr. this morning.  It was a really good play put on by some VERY talented young actors from the area.  I was very impressed!!

Sprained Ankle

On Friday afternoon, I lost my balance in the garage and as I was trying to catch myself and keep from falling on Dayton, I sprained my ankle/foot very badly!  I called Derek (who was about an hour away) crying and told him I had broken my ankle and couldn't get up...Luckily, it wasn't broken, but it sure hurt when it happened!! This is how it looked at Urgent Care on Friday afternoon.

 Saturday night, it was swollen the most - it didn't really hurt unless I tried to put weight on it.

 Washing clothes yesterday using my crutches (or crunches as Dayton calls them).

 My foot this morning, all bruised up - most of the swelling has gone, but now my toes are swollen...

My stylish boot!! 

On Friday I never thought I'd be able to walk as soon as I have.  I do still need that boot on to walk any at all, but I have really improved a lot and maybe when all the swelling is gone I can try walking without the boot?  I'm kinda scared to try it - I'm thinking it will be a lot easier to hurt it again...
