Bryn has two friends whose parents are some of our friends. We all went to the local cafe the other day, and the girls had so much fun making silly faces with the lemons that were served on the edge of the water glasses. (I know, they aren't supposed to play with food, but once in a while you have to let them enjoy some small pleasure. Really, they can have excellent manners!) The youngest girl, Kaitlyn, is facing surgery tomorrow on her eyelid. She has had a small growth for a few months that was originally considered to be a stye. Antibiotics and ointments were administered to no avail. Finally, after going to a specialist at UCLA, it was deemed surgery was necessary to remove whatever this growth is. Kaitlyn has been a trouper and even with high fevers, she has never complained. Please say a prayer for her that all goes well.
I'm not sure who came up with the phrase, "when life hands you lemons make lemonade." How about, "When life hands you lemon wedges, make silly faces." Cute picture of Bryn and her friends, and I will pray for the little girl that is having surgery tomorrow.

Adorable picture of the three girls. At first, I thought they had egg yolks in their mouths! lol I think that every one of our nieces and nephews have been given a lemon to suck on when they were babies. My nephew Paul was the only one who actually liked it! I'll keep Kaitlyn in my prayers
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I remember doing this as a kid - anything to get a laugh!
ReplyDeleteHey, Carol, that is a cute saying. Thanks for praying for Kaitlyn.
ReplyDeleteKaren - thanks for the compliments. I do believe every child needs a good introduction to lemons. LOL You prayers for Kaitlyn are appreciated. She has surgery 6:30 a.m. Friday morning, Pacific Time.
Thanks for dropping by, Gene. Isn't laughter great?!
