ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
The moments of our lives may be bright with possibility, dark with fear or sadness, or even plain everyday gray, but God's glory never fades. May God's glory shine into the exciting lights, upsetting darks, and boring grays of your every day.

Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
Today is Unique Names Day which is a day to appreciate the names that are different, the ones where people ask, how do you pronounce that? Unique names have their flair, they have character, they’re memorable. If you have a unique name then today is your day to celebrate it.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
There is only one you in all time.
Martha Graham
I only have one grandson that has ever called by the name Memaw and he gave me the sign shown at the top today, for Christmas this past year. It’s his special name for me. All the rest call me Grand’ma’.
I believe that we are all unique and wonderfully made people, but my name is not different, nor memorable. They say that there are 679,547 people in the US with the first name as Pamela. It is the 77th most popular first name. It is far from being unique.
What makes us each unique will probably have nothing to do with our name. Believe it or not, no one else is just like you. Your appearance, your voice, traits and habits all make you one of a kind. Even your fingerprints distinguish you.
So on this third day of my birthday week, I’ll remember just how unique and special I am, as are all of you! We are all uniquely and beautifully made!
I hope you all have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Being a one of a kind means we are automatically the best in the world at what we do.
Victor Williamson
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
5773. for each unique and beautiful person on my life
5774. for the life I’ve been given, it’s one of a kind
5775. for snowflakes on a March day, they are unique just like each of us
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!
ADVICE FOR TODAY
Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.
Margaret Mead
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,
ma

Some of our grandchildren have unusual names. The most unusual? Persephone.
Uh-oh. It sounds like I missed your birthday, so here's wishing you a belated one. I hope you had a wonderful day. (Somehow, I think you have a wonderful day EVERY day...)
I’m a MeeMaw, Bella and MiMi! My sister is a Gerta.....no clue why!
Happy Birthday! Hope your week is as bright as you make ours!
I am just Kay...a letter in the alphabet! HA! Happy belated birthday! x
I've few encounters with others named Myra, but don't really mind my name.
Pam, on the other hand, is cute! One former sales manager used to refer to a colleague as 'PamELLA.' Were I 50 years younger (lol) I may have grabbed that for a daughter.
Sending all sorts of silly-but-sincere Birthday blessings!
