Happy Valentine's Day

HAPPY HEART DAY

The Love of God ---
"Could we with ink the ocean fill
And were the skies of parchment made,
Were every stalk on earth a quill,
And every man a scribe by trade;
To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry;
Nor could the scroll contain the whole,
Though stretched from sky to sky."

-3rd stanza of Frederick Lehman
Hymn, The Love of God

A Special Memory With Kyla

February 11, 2014 ·
Kyla is here today...I don't do well with picture taking and posting them on FB so I will write you a word picture story. Kyla converts our dining room and partial area in the living room into her "make believe home" for her friends...today she had 7. She proceeded to set my table and her table for breakfast with her plastic dishes and borrowed a few of mine. After serving breakfast she took all 7 and had them nap on the carpet, covered with our small light-weight blankies. She came to get me to see Dog. Dog was having a time out and was sitting behind the recliner. As I watched, Kyla bent over and talked in whispered tones to Dog about his behavior. Then, time out was over and Dog joined the others. After she put the dirty dishes in her dish washer (an empty drawer in my hutch) she put big bear down for a nap on her bed. As I watched I saw the routine Kyla and I do for her nap---story read, then room prepared, and finally a night-night kiss. Landon never played like this. Welp, nap time is over and it is time for ME to fix Kyla's lunch and put her down for her nap. Maybe, I will nap too. Oh, I love being Mimi.

New Worship Fellowship

On Sunday October 23, 2016 Charlie and I worshiped at Trinity Presbyterian OC.  I wrote that the love and care we experienced was like the Balm of Gilead healing ointment.  We have continued worshiping there and are so grateful to God for His guidance and tender love over us.
