ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
SEPTEMBER 1ST, 2010It's WEDNESDAY!
The end of August sure was exciting. I'm happy to say our little Mr. Wonderful and his mom are doing just fine. He was born at 8:18 yesterday morning, weighing in at 8 lbs. 12 oz. and 20 inches long. Sporting curly hair and a dimple too!
Now we begin a new month and it's a special one for our family too as we celebrate 2 September birthdays and a wedding anniversary.
September is National Chicken Month, Baby Safety Month, Children's Good Manners Month, Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, National Coupon Month, National Honey Month, Mold Awareness Month and National Honey Month.

September's birthstone: sapphire. Flower: aster or morning glory.THINKING
The Golden Rule advises me to treat others as I would like to be treated.


You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart ... and your neighbor as yourself

Today is National Cherry Popover Day.

Cherry Popovers

1 1/2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour (or all-purpose)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

4. Remove from oven, pierce tops with a knife to let the steam escape, and allow to cool in pan for 5 minutes
.5. Remove from pan, and serve.

Lord, I ask for the power of your Spirit in my life that I may live in such a way that I show kindness in another’s trouble, and courage in my own.

selfless acts they perform for usin our time of need. I ask this in the

AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT's
GOD BLESS YOU ALL! AROUND HOME

I heard on the news that the 2011 Farmers Almanac says it will be a kinder winter over all this year but perhaps a colder one too.

I read in this years Almanac for 2010 that snow is predicted before Thanksgiving and so I'm thinking it will be earlier than usual. Guess we'll just have to wait and see...
.I was finally able to finish up and give away one of my craft projects too. I made one for our little MR. WONDERFUL and also painted one for grandbabes # 12 and #13 too as I'd not painted anything for them yet.

I put each of their names and birth dates at the bottom.
FAMILY

Our 'Little Ray" of Sunshine started Kindergarten this week so I'm sharing another back to school picture today. He has one of our September birthdays too.

So does his Mom! A special month for both of them.

And I also received a back to school picture of Our Star and Our Angel with their little brother, Little Lad.
Everyone is ready for a new school year!

COUNTING THE DAYS
DS#5 says can you see the family resemblance?


21 DAYS UNTIL FALL



Keep looking ON THE BRIGHT SIDE of things.

A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone near…

Love,
