goodbye Momma.....

 goodbyes are never easy......... especially ........ when we know on this side of heaven we will never kiss or hug again ......

but ........ knowing there is a sweet reassurance ..... that someday ...... at heaven’s gate i can run to your arms again ........ how can it possibly be 19 years without you by my side ..... & ......cheering me on !

love & miss you Mom 💙

……………………………………………… i am blessed 💙

in the fifties......

it was 1958......

the beginning of precious, lifelong  memories......friendships.....boyfriends......cheerleading......baton twirling...(notice I didn’t say books, I was a horrible student)......
it is 2019.......

it was said.....”it is like Monday morning & we are catching up from the weekend “

..........joys & sorrow......marriage & divorce.....children & grands.....loss & gain.....something we have all shared fifty years worth......my how we have been blessed to spend a short weekend together!

a class of 45 in the year 1969.......

i am so blessed!

two days.....

two days.....

multiple blessings.....

love for my people......

my tribe.....

& his new title .....mr. mustard seed......(dubbed by a customer......)

me.........smiles!

another open house door closed!

&.......thank you sweet Winnie.....what a treasure you are.......

.....................i am blessed!💙

from above......

sometimes we just need to stop....&.....see things from above....

a view of the Bible Garden from upstairs........

i am blessed!

when i was on HIS mind....

first of all......i can’t believe it has been so long....... no problems... things are fine.....no explanation really....

no excuses...........maybe laziness....... just don’t know ...... but that being said .....sitting here i was impressed to begin again.......

 with a new beginning & hopefully a new commitment .......

God knew me ....isn’t that absolutely perfect......HE knew ME..... knows me ... 

WOW ... when i was on HIS mind ..... how comforting to know ...

this is me ....... ALWAYS ON HIS MIND!

.................i am blessed!

this week......

the sweetest little “God beam” this week ....... when a moment of sun is rare ...... when days are cold & dreary ..... &  spirits seem to be a little low ...... it’s those days when we see the slightest little beam......

......................... i am blessed!

a day in January.....

it’s just a day ....... a day of cold wind softly blowing across the field ....... usually a snow ........ & ........ occasionally, more often than not ........ a day with the flu .... a cold ..... bronchitis ..... 

this year ....... church cancelled ...... snowed in & mr Prairie Blue called in to plow the school lots ......

no illness ..... no party ..... no song .... just a snowed in day with peanut butter & jelly crackers for lunch ...

still ........ i am blessed !

a quiet place.......

the gathering was postponed for a week due to illness.......

&........... now the house has quieted ............ where laughter & love was a quick magical moment......

i so miss the gatherings of the entire clan ( which is only ten) ......... it goes way too fast ..... but .....

...................... i am blessed!
