Hello, there!
This has been an
interesting year for the Booths! Lots
of challenges, struggles and hurdles. Satan
has been trying to knock the door down for most of the year.
However, he will not succeed as Jesus is our Lord and Savior—He
has already won the VICTORY!
I am still looking for
work—something that I can do from home! Please
pray that something will show up soon! I
have resumes all over Sumter and continue to send them out.
Looks like with as many as I have passed out—I would get hired for
being persistent or for being a nuisance.
I continue to try to keep
up with the house, Jonathan, and David. The
latter is the hardest to keep up with. The
biggest thing in his life right now is that he will retire from the State of
South Carolina in June. I am sure
he would be glad to tell you about it!
My folks are doing
well! My Daddy just
turned 81 and has had a good year physically.
The first year in a long time that he has not been hospitalized.
He continues to remain cancer free—thanks to the prayers of many.
He continues to deal with heart problems making frequent trips to the
doctor to have his blood thinner monitored but on a whole is doing well. His biggest challenge now is taking care of Mother.
The Lord truly blessed us all by allowing him to quite work a number of
years ago to stay home with her. He
has learned to cook, do laundry, clean the house, even do Mother’s hair.
We’re all very proud of him! My Mama turned 83 in September and has recently recovered from
pneumonia. She was able to stay at
home with Daddy nursing her back to health.
She is remarkable in that she is rarely sick and never complains.
(Because she never complains, we have to be careful—making sure that she does
feel all right.) She told me years
ago that she has always prayed that she would grow old gracefully. Her prayers have truly been answered! I hope that I
will be able to grow old as gracefully as she has.
Daddy becomes overwhelmed at times taking care of everything.
Please pray for them as time is taking its toll!
I continue to be very
grateful for Alice Drive Baptist Church and our church family there.
It would be impossible at times to continue if it were not for them and
their prayers.
God bless you all, Kay
