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!

Today is Absolutely Incredible Kid Day which reminds people that every kid out there is incredible. This holiday was created in 1997 by Campfire USA as a day to show all kids that they are loved and cared for.
Celebrate today by telling the children in your life how much you appreciate them and love then. Whether it’s your own child, grandchild, or family friend, use this day to let them know how incredible they are.
March 21st is also World Forestry Day and National French Bread Day.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Nine tenths of wisdom is appreciation. Go find somebody’s hand and squeeze it … while there is still time.
Dale Dauten
There is no doubt about it, I do have lots of incredible kids in my life and each and everyone is very special and unique. They are all incredible!
I don’t see them all the time so it’s a good day to say, You all are appreciated and very loved. It’s always good to tell those we love just how much we care about them and we can’t do it often enough. The pictures today are of just a few of the many incredible kids in my life. My kids, and my grandkids too.
The tree trimmers came back here yesterday and ground up the tree stumps they’d left behind a few weeks ago. Now we have huge piles of wood chips. Hopefully they’ll be back to clear those away too. My car was covered in the dust they made and the yard is a mess. I had to hook up the outdoor hose and give the car a good wash down. On the bright side it happened to be warm enough to get out and do that.
It felt good just to get outside and do something too. Today we’re turning colder and they say that tomorrow we may even see some snow. Ha! But by Sunday we’re supposed to be back up to 50.
I hope you all have a GREAT day. Happy Thursday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.
William Arthur Ward
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
6896. for all the incredible kids in my life
6897. for Spring days to get outside
6898. for a day at home, I’ve lots to do
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
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!

Kids are incredible !
You got some incredible kids and grandkids for sure, Ma! It is nice to have a day to celebrate them all. I also like that it is National French Bread Day. One of my favorite types of bread.
I do hope they clean up the rest of the wood chips with the mess they created. I'm sure it felt good to get outside and do some work, though!

Incredible Kid Day … I love that idea! Every one ... in his or her own fashion. I hope someday ALL children feel as special and appreciated as yours.
