Makes me smile

All My Children make me smile.
Especially when they accomplish
something that makes them smile.
My youngest Daughter has a Blog,
called 'A Lifes Design'.
She worked hard to get her degree,
at Auburn University, in Interior Design.
(Anyone one out there following
College football has heard the Cry
"War Eagle", after AU won the
BCS National Championship this year)
I'm so proud to announce I got a Big smile,
when Megan was featured
as one of the Trendsetters in Birmingham
Home and Garden Magazine for her Artistic
Interior Design.

I'm so proud of you Megan ☺

Open with Prayer

     Some times we feel so small in this world.
     So Begin your New Year with a Prayer...

Father in faith I bow to You
in total submission.
Your word declares that you
alone control the
universe and everything in it.




Every Circumstance of my life
has been sifted
through Your loving hands,
and today I will rest
in that comforting truth.
~Kay Arthur~
from: Search My heart, O God
      God will lead us by His loving hand.

My Son on the Run! again

My Son has taken off
to Run around Chicago...
In this 


But we KNEW!
Since he was TWO!

           He would do this...

  This Picture is for his Friend Kelli,

                           Who has the same Bio-Gene?
                              She is in the Race Too.
                                You Go "Woman"!

         PS... His OLDER ... Sister's ?
             Melise,
             ran a Half Marathon
             Through Disney...

                Run's with him when she can
                Megan,

         jumped out of a perfectly
         good Airplane with him.

           I did "walk" a 5k (3miles)

      My Grand Daughter running with me over the finish.
         I'm just sayin?

What's a "donk donk"?

What's a Donk Donk?
My daughter Megan won an Itouch

and we all were amazed!
At how quickly my Grand daugther

learned to find the Games and play them...

she loves to "touch" the Apps
And says "donk" when she picks them.

So her mother got one from Ebay...
Now its really sad when my 25 yr old son,

begs his 3yr old niece to play with the
"donk donk".... Haha.
I guess I'm going to have to get one
so they won't fight...

SSShhh... I want one to.
Apple you named it wrong its not
an Itouch its a "donk donk".

I Remember

I Remember











The face of Evil

Even though
I walk 
through the 
valley of 
the shadow
of death

I will fear 

NO EVIL

I Remember

for YOU are

with ME...

Hears LOOKIN at you...

This guy came to have his picture made 

while I was taking the shots of the 
Calla lily.

He was really checking me out. 

God Saying I love you

                  This is a Calla Lily 
           that blooms in my front yard 

 Its simple shape says ... I Love You ... 

from our God

LONG TIME

A RAY OF HOPE

Long Time

to be away.

Long Time 

but listen, come what may. 

Long Time

Where have I been you say?

Long Time

Well, you missed me. Hey!

Long Time

I've been finding my new way.

Long Time

That chapter has come to an end. YEAH!

Long Time

I know. I'm Happy. It's a new Day.

Long Time

The clouds have moved I see the Sun's RAY of Hope.

This is a little poem I wrote about being away from The Art of Living on my Blog for a "Long Time". In the coming weeks I see a ray of hope that I will be able to add to it once again. Its all about living, sometimes life just happens and we pause from somethings for awhile. I hope you will come back and read my new posts and join me with your comments. Its all about life, and it all GOOD, thank you Jesus.

Twenty Ten

Happy New Year! 2010
