Prayers for healing

Happy March!  I've got a post in the wings about our weekend, but it'll have to be later today.  Just wanted to ask for prayers for my Grandma Alice.  She had another fall at the Meadows over the weekend (or maybe on Friday?) and she was in the hospital.  They have done a few scans of her brain and there is bleeding, however, it hasn't gotten any worse, so the dr. believes it will heal on its own.  I'm so sad for her.  She's had a rough time since moving into the Meadows, and I hope that she will heal.  She's tough and I pray she will.  Don't know if I ever posted any of these pics, but over Turkey Day weekend 2011 (the one where Jay & I ran our first Turkey Day 10K), we grabbed these pictures.  I came across them yesterday and they make me smile. 


A few funny things Ella is doing lately (this is more for me to remember):

- She likes to be a pirate, excuse me, she is Captain Ella.  She'll say "Arghhh Matey, I am Captain Ella!"  Hilarious.

- She is singing and dancing all the time and now she likes to instruct us how to do it.  "Ok – bend your knees like this – then wiggle like a lion"  ?  Who knows where she comes up with her dances, but it's so cute.

- She knows Tobby Keith's song "Red Solo Cup" and will stop whatever she's doing to sing along when she hears it.  We have no idea how she learned this song, but most likely picked it up from the radio playing in the car.  Last night she sang it at dinner.  Whenever it strikes her, she'll just break into songs. 

- Ella is obsessed with her dollhouse and telling the dollhouse people what to do.  They go in the car to the library or to "Halloween" or to Target.  HA!

- She will wrap her blanket around her waist and twirl like a princess.  "Look mommy, I'm a princess!"

She's keeping us on our toes!
