Grace

Grace.

  • Seemingly effortless beauty or charm.
  • A favour rendered by one who need not do so; for example, the company who make Mog's switch apologising for being out of stock of replacements and offering to loan one of their demo models for a fortnight until the new ones come in.

  • A disposition to be generous or helpful; for example the carer who has voluntarily stayed on past her shift's end every day this week to sort out Mog's bedroom, tidy her wardrobe, shuffle the supplies from twelve cardboard boxes into the neatly stacked under bed storage system.

  • A temporary immunity, a reprieve. A babysitter choosing to stay on and take Little Fish to the park to give Mog and I time to unwind after a hospital appointment.

  • The free and unmerited favour of God, as manifested in the salvation of sinners and the bestowal of blessings.

As I think I said before, that picture of the two girls on the bottom is worthy of a frame.

Miss Mog looks *wonderfully* comfortable in the top photo too.

Grace is a beautiful thing in all its forms

That's an absolutely fantastic photo of Mog - frame it!

For backup switch mounting (which might also make it easier to use different types of switch, if desperate) I've found the GorillaPod absolutely brilliant. My bedside switch for my environmental control system is held on by one at the moment, flexible fingers wrapped neatly round my bed bumper. On which note: I bet Mog would love to be able to turn on her own lights/music in bed...

Hope the appointment was fruitful xx

Awesome post! The pictures worth a million words. So good to see Mog so happy and comfortable.

Grace is a amazing thing and comes in so many ways. Ways we might not think of as grace at 1st glance, but grace nonetheless.

Thanks for sharing.
