A TIME TO REFLECT

This time every year, I like to reflect on the passed year. Did I do my best? Could I do better? Who would I like to get to know better, and who can I let in, just a little more?

If I died today, are there any regrets, anything left unsaid, undone? These are the questions I ask myself every year. Sometimes, I can say I'm okay, but mostly, I have lots of work to do. Next year, I promise, I'll do better.

I asked my friend, Joan, to write a Thanksgiving prayer for my blog and she composed this beautiful prayer...Thank you Joan, it is beautiful.

Heavenly Father,

I stand here in amazement of what you have done for us. All of us. Everyone in this beautiful world that you made and we get to enjoy
the awesomeness of it.

Father at this time of the year we all reflect on how greatful and blessed we are, and the ones who are in desparate need of your help.
Thank you for Family, Friends and loved one near and far. Father bless the many men, women and children who have found themselves in deparate need this year. Provide for all their needs.

Father bless and protect our servicemen who serve our country here and in foregin lands. Bless their families and protect them.

We love you Lord and we are so very, very greatful for all that you have provided. Father keep me ever mindful that everyday is a day
to be greatful. Not just one day out of the year but everyday.

Father, help us to remember that you are "the way the Truth and the life. That you give us Hope everyday not just once a year. That Abundance does not mean things. To remember to Love our Neighbors as we love ourselves. For His merciful Kindness is great toward us. Our Savior, Lord
of all. We are forever Greatful for all that you do for us. That you Oh Lord are the fairest among the lillies and you are Indescribeable. You have given us Victory. "As for me, You uphold me in my Integrity. And set me before Your face forever". Psalm 117:2 Whatever things are True, whatever things are Noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything "praiseworthy--mediate on these things. Phil. 4:8 Finally my friends it is better to Give than to receive.

May God Bless You All Abundantly, remember this is the day of Giving Thanks.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ZACK





Dear Zack:

Today is your Birthday...16 years old...man, oh man, who would have thunk it???? It seems like just yesterday, Granddad and I were calling your dad every day to find out if you were born...

I remember, a long, long time ago, turning 16. I couldn't wait to get my drivers license so I could drive through town with the windows open and the radio blasting out some Beatles or Stones song. I was on top of the world.

I hope you have a wonderful day, and that all your wishes come true.

Life has a way of sneaking past you, one day your sixteen and the next your sixty...I can only hope your in-between years are as great as mine have been, that you find your perfect someone and that your happy times far out-weigh the sad ones.

I wish for you only the best life has to offer!!!! You are a wonderful person, and I am as proud of you as a GrandMother can be.

With all my Love,

Grand Mother

IT'S A MIRACLE LISA WALKED AWAY!!!!




A tractor that was cutting grass on side of freeway had a bush hog mower, and the mower deck hydraulics failed and it came down in Lisa's lane....she didn't have time to get out of the way, hit it at 65mph, and it flipped the van on it's side....slid 50-60 yards down the freeway....Thank God She walked away from this with only a cut, even though it took 3 stitches...it still was a miracle.
