Sun setting off the back porch in at Micah and Jodi house
Hello friends– So happy to say that Jodi and the 3 grand-girls are back from China!! Been missing them all 4! So today we trundled up to Ojai for welcome home hugs and a little birthday cake for Jodi. Loved the sweet time together.
Out and about in Ojai– trying out the new Sushi restaurant in town–a grand-girl favorite.
And back home there was some awesome double rainbow watching and a little soggy puddle jumping. Things are never dull with the grand-girls back– Love those lively, lovable girls.
The Thankful Heart 
WOW! Look at those rainbows! And the beautiful grand girls! So glad they are back.

HI Serena!!– thanks.
How exciting! Beautiful rainbows, too!
oh cuties and a beautiful rainbow, I love your blog Rhonda. have been skimming through the blend of love, in cooking, in faith, in family, is a wonderful recipe for a blog, inspires me every time I visit -thank you
Poli– I have to thank you. You are the smartest and most encouraging blog friend. Been out of touch for a bit– family medical stuff. But I do love your clever blog! xox
Dear Rhonda – sorry to hear about the family medical stuff, but I had guessed as you kept intimating that things were a bit of a struggle in your blog the past months so I assumed somebody was maybe not doing so well, my best thoughts and wishes for you and your lovely family – Poli
Thanks Poli– we are over the hump, I’m thinking. Better days ahead. You are so dear.
GOOD to hear, I am glad for you
Rhonda, this time it’s my turn — I miss you and I’m praying for you! 🙂
HI Daisy– been through a hip surgery with my mom– working on helping her recover– and a tiny cancer surgery of my own. So I’m off the track for a bit… You are so dear to check in this way. thanks. xox
Dear Rhonda! I will be praying for you, my friend! May I quote to you what Elisabeth Elliot always said, “He has loved you with an everlasting love… and underneath are the everlasting arms.” I pray you will be up-lifted, and en-Couraged, by the Holy Spirit during this challenging time. xoxo
Daisy– you are a joy. thank you. (Love Elizabeth Elliot’s writing– heard once at Urbana and it had a big effect on me…)
Miss you and can’t wait til you’re fully recovered! You’re in my prayers.
Daisy you are the best. thankful to hear from you…
You are one lucky woman! Enjoy! xxx
