[Magdalen] Prayer request

> This is for my son, Chris,
> Mothers never stop worrying.

Nope, we never do.  Prayers rising for Chris as he moves into and through 
this recent challenge and the ongoing 'stuff'...  prayers too for learning 
how to take care of his stress levels which can so often overshadow us 
before we know what's coming. And for 'mom'.

love
Lynn (who first identified stress by realizing what seemed like stress was 
actually/already stress-overload)

single bit of talent left and could say, "I used everything You gave me."
