A New Front Door

Mom/Bethel has been waiting for a new front door for 50 years...isn't that something? Last year she and Dad decided to have a few remodeling projects done around their house. She was most exited about getting a new front door, as she has never liked the one that was there. As their handyman got busy it became all too evident that the front door was going to be the last thing on his list (of course). She patiently waited...and waited....and when it finally came this past January it was defective and had to be sent back and re-ordered. I think God was teaching her a patience lesson, and she never complained or whined a bit. BUT she was happy when it came, was stained and FINALLY put into place. This is what her lovely door looks like.
And when the sun shines, the glass just sparkles with beauty. It was worth waiting for!

Nice! I think I might miss the old door, though! It's hard to picture that fancy, new door in Grandma's house.

I really wa happy to see Bethel and Larry's new door. It is very pretty and it is nice after 50 years that they have it. Elna
