THOUGHT FOR TODAY
The best thing about the future is that it comes only one day at a time.
Abraham Lincoln
A double birthday happens just 2 times a year in my family. This is the first and is the celebration of my youngest son and one of my granddaughter’s birthdays. This year we won’t be together but none the less my birthday wishes are just as heartfelt. The other double birthday will come in June when we celebrate DD’s and DS#3’s birthdays.
It’s also Martin Luther King day today and we celebrate the birth of a very great man. This date has been notorious for bad weather here. Many years I had to take some of my boys back to school on this weekend and many the times we drove on snowy and icy roads too. This weekend has been cold and snowy but for the most part the roads are clear so that is worth celebrating too.
I hope you all have a marvelous Monday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Nothing is worth more than this day.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
I have counted at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for this past year and have now reached my 1000 gifts. I'm not stopping, but will continue on counting. There is always, always something to be thankful for.
1331. for DS#6, a wonderful son
1332. for our Princess, a beautiful granddaughter
1333. for today, it is definitely worth celebrating
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Lord, hold our troops in
your loving hands.
Protect them as they protect us.
Bless them and their families for the
selfless acts they perform for us
in our time of need. I ask this in the
name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT's
GOD BLESS YOU ALL !
No yesterdays are ever wasted for those who give themselves to today.
Brendan Francis
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,
