Stop Running and Find Some Shade

Last week, Moo and I were walking and he was doing very well. As a matter of fact, he was walking ahead of me at a steady pace. It was very hot that morning, and we were sweating profusely. But when we got to the back street of our little neighborhood, there were rows of…

Flower Sticks and Twist Ties 2

My gladiola blooming season has been poor this year, and I am not sure why. I had only seen two actual blooms so far and had told myself this was a slow year for me. We recently had a few days of straight rain, so I hadn't been looking after my flower beds. This morning,…

A SMILE ON MY FACE AND A GOOD ATTITUDE

Moo was a little late getting going with the walking this morning, so I started off without him...and I started thinking back to a few years ago, when we would have what I call "morning wars" - me yelling for him to get up, him not getting up, etc..., which made for some stressful mornings...Moo…

Where Do I Put My Hand?

In the picture above, my niece Mya was holding my husband Paul's hand as they walked from my son Aaron's football game to my mom's truck. My brother Dexter and his wife Yemi were deployed to Afghanistan at the time. They put Mya in my mother's hands/care while they were gone, trusting that she would…

I CUT THE CORD!!!!

So, last night I went to bed and I prayed, "God, please wake me up at 6, so I can walk and cut some bushes." So promptly at 6, He woke me up, and then I prayed, "God, please let me sleep one more hour." So He did, and I woke up promptly at 7....and…
