Peridot, the August birthstone is associated with less tangible qualities of peace, good fortune and happiness. The mellow glow of the Peridot, a soft, light green under the starlit sky or lantern has earned this lovely gemstone the title ‘The Evening Emerald’. The August birthstone is associated with prosperity, growth, dignity and love.
The flower for this month is the Gladiolus. It blooms in a variety of colours like red, pink, white, yellow and orange. It stands for sincerity and symbolises strength of character.
The month of August is Admit You're Happy Month, Family Fun Month, National Catfish Month, National Eye Exam Month, National Golf Month, Peach Month, Water Quality Month, and National Picnic Month
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
One year old child is so many things
A tiny discoverer of butterfly wings,
A hugger of Teddies,
A sweet sleepyhead,
And someone to dream for in bright years ahead.
It hardly seems possible this precious little granddaughter is one year old already. It seems just yesterday I was awaiting news of her birth. I won’t see her today but should be attending a party in her honor next weekend. Can’t wait to see her again.
August in northern Ohio usually brings lots of sunny weather and pretty hot days. Things tend to dry out and even though we have scattered thunder storms, everything begins to look a little wilted. The cicadas are traditionally an August sound and I’ve heard them singing in the trees for a few days now.
Looks like more lazy hazy summer days coming my way.
I hope you all have a SUPER Saturday !
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Grandchildren complete the circle of love.
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
2997. for our little Precious One, she’s one year old today
2998. for parties, always lots of fun
2999. for one more month of summer to enjoy
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.
Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU ALL !
ADVICE FOR TODAY
The joy of grandchildren is measured in the heart.
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,
ma

Happy birthday to Precious! She's so adorable, along with her older brother :) It is hard to believe we are starting August already :) We had a nice rain last night and I think more on the way today. Since it is our first year here, it is interesting to see how the weather has been so far. I would imagine we'll see it cooling off as the month goes on and we head into fall next month.
betty
I'm so glad you get to see your Precious One soon... and I am celebrating a birthday this month, too!
