My Prayer For Preemies...

The Prayer

I pray you’ll be our eyes
And watch us where we go
And help us to be wise
In times when we don’t know
Let this be our prayer
As we go our way
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
To a place where we’ll be safe
La luce che to dai
I pray we’ll find your light
Nel cuore restero
And hold it in our hearts
A ricordarchi che
When stars go out each night
L’eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera
Let this be our prayer
Quanta fede c’e
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we’ll be safe.
Sognamo un mondo senza piu violenza
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace e di fraternita
La forza che ci dai
We ask that life be kind
E’il desiderio che
And watch us from above
Ognuno trovi amore
We hope each soul will find
Intorno e dentro a se
Another soul to love
Let this be our prayer
Just like every child
Needs to find a place,
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we’ll be safe
E la fede che
Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salvera
Hospitals and childbirth centers
in this the country are always in need
of preemie hats for their newborns
so if you knit, crochet or shop...
please find a need near you and
contribute to these darlings.
Please pass it on....
With Love, Jenn
and remember - it's never ok to shake a baby

Monday - HE Restoreth My Soul - My Saturday Adventure at The Maryland Sheep & Wool Festival

i went to the MARYLAND SHEEP & WOOL FESTIVAL on saturday with my friend rachel... i don't weave, spin, knit, crochet, I'm allergic to wool, love to eat lamb ( just couldn't that day ) - and adore animals and creative talents of others along with neutral and vivid colors....we had a blast....I used my inhaler...lol. jennifer
At first glance the song's refrain, as written on the sheet music, seems to be meaningless:

Mairzy doats and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?
Mairzy doats and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?
However, the lyrics of the bridge provide a clue:
If the words sound queer and funny to your ear, a little bit jumbled and jivey,
Sing "Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy."
there was every shape,size and breed of lamb,llamas big and small,sheering, contests,ice cream,corn dogs,skeins,maas and baas,lamb kabobs,lamb burgers,chilled soft drinks, weavers, spinners, greeting cards, looms, hats, scarves, shawls, gloves,jewelry,lessons, plants,flowers,veggies,
pink slippers,
even bunnies!
23rd Psalm


The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name' sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil:
For thou art with me;
Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies;
Thou annointest my head with oil;
My cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever.

another song I was hummy today..."How Great Thou Art"...Jennifer
yup sometimes I'm silly, sometimes I'm sweet tee hee

Knit? Crochet? Want to Be a Sweetie and help someone?




Did you know that there are churches and oganizations that accept donations of hats
and scarves for Cancer patients undergoing Chemotherapy? I live in Maryand and a local has a group that gathers to make hats and
scarves to donate. They accept yarn and
will teach beginners how to. So if you
knit, crochet or have yarn or knitting
or crochet supplies - please check out
your area and see if there is a resource like this.
