A Small Rain

Small Rain, a vintage book with  favorite Bible verses and delightful illustrations of children at play.  It's  no longer found on library shelves. (I wonder what has replaced it.)
A caregiver shares it with elderly patients and most often they receive "showers of blessings". 
 Small Rain by Jessie Orton Jones 
From Viking Press 1966.
My doctrine shall drop as the rain,
My speech shall distill as the dew,
As the small rain upon the tender herb,
And as the showers upon the grass.  Deuteronomy 32:2


Ezekiel 34:26 ...there will be showers of blessing.

A heart for a family member with Dementia

There's dementia information available for care givers on the web.  Read from Teepa Snow, the Occupational Therapist, and what she has said in her article,    The Living  Gems.  She's on Youtube too.   (For the gem you know).
