Ohhhhhhh to be a kid with tons of beads in my hair, running through my grandmother's yard with no problems in sight, green green grass, sunny skies...wuddnt that be nice!!!

My niece 'Mylie @ my parents house this summer.....



Thankful for ….

A rebirth in my faith

Renewed belief in hope

Love

Random acts of kindness from me to you or from you to me

My childhood home

My community bed…my boys have all kinds of electronics in their own rooms but every once in awhile they both love to be in my bed watching a movie…even better when the cat and the dog are in the room too.

EVERYTHING that has happened to me…good and BAD. If it hadn’t happened I wouldn’t be the me, right now, in this space of life that I am in. And I think this ‘me’ is alright….

True friendships

Peace that passes all understanding



Flocks of birds…hey…some people have the Ark as their promise…I have my flock of birds. They so make my heart lighter when I see them…I don’t know why. I usually see them on my way in to work. For example, I’m driving like a speed demon, look up into the sky and see like a black blur across the highway…the closer I get the more I realize…it’s a flock. Stretching across. Undulating, sometimes separating into two flocks but pretty much, I look at as God doing that JUST FOR LITTLE OLE ME. But today I was running a lllllllllllllliiiiiiiiiiiiiillllllllll late and instead of seeing them on my way to work, there was a flock of birds in my tree’s this morning. LOUDLY ‘chirping’ or whatever sound it is they make. Well I’ll be (as my grandmother used to say)…I almost dropped to my knee’s. I should have because this was a bad morning and THAT was my promise that I can fly no matter what…

Happy Thanksgiving everyone…stay blessed and look for the thankful in your life…I am SO sure its there….

Beautiful thanks...I wish I had a headful of beads in my hair too -- now THAT would be fun!! :)

And the good and the BAD...sometimes I think that bad can be better than the good for what it gives us.

I wish you and your family a blessed Thanksgiving!

It would be so very, very nice. But, you know what's better? Meeting new friends. Especially friends who know are wise enough to be thankful in ALL things. Hello, friend.
