Memorial Day

Thank you to all the men and women who have died protecting our freedom.

For without their sacrifice, we wouldn't be free to speak, pray, read,
or live the way we do.

We have not forgotten.

And,

Thanks are not enough.

May God bless each and every one of you

and may He watch over those who remain behind,
serving and protecting this great nation.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Still here...

I'm still here, I'm simply taking a break from blogland for a little while.  I'm realizing there are some things in my life that need taking care of and I'm focusing on that for right now.  Part of that is starting a new Bible study with my husband using Rick Warren's Purpose Driven Life.  We started on May 11th, which would have been O's 6th birthday, and we'll conclude on June 20th, O's day of passing.  Since he lived only 40 days and the number 40 has so much Biblical significance, hubby and I wanted to do this 40 day study to see what God has to tell us about his period in our lives.  We have been floundering around for a long time and we both feel that our focus needs to be refurbished.  I'll be back soon, hopefully with something profound to say and if not, at least the experience will be one of growth.

Stay safe!

Trust in the LORD with all your heart
   and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him,
   and he will make your paths straight.

Proverbs 3:5-6

Happy Mother's Day

I pray everyone has a wonderful day today!
