"Our Daddy may have only had a third grade education, but he could read the King James Bible, " says Helen Ashe. He taught us three things: 1. There is but one race-- the human race. 2. There is but one Father--the Heavenly Father. 3. Never take the last piece of bread from the table. (Helen Ashe co-founder of the Love Kitchen)"

Star Wars Day~

May the 4th.. be with you :o)

(May the force be with you ;o) Hee, Hee


When my friend Jennifer shared this joke this a.m. I hoped this would bring a smile to these precious faces (Jim's too).

I grew up with my brothers watching and playing Star Wars. We have a few fans around here too as evidenced that we actually own Star Wars Christmas ornaments.... which are on the cake (Yes, we are nerdy..).

I wanted to bless these guys "just because". I was so happy I could bring them a little happiness on a Monday when the baby is fussy, the toddler has a fever, and we are all missing someone we love.


God blesses us so often with blessings just because He can. He blesses us out of His abundant love. I pray that I will always stop and notice and appreciate His blessings, although I so often don't.

I also pray that if I can bless someone in word or deed that I will. I fail at this too often.


I hope your May the 4th is full of blessings.
