Shhhh...

This is peaceful and serene! You can hear a rain drop!

Thank you for stopping by!
This is my three year blip!
Wow, much has changed in 3 years.
Good and not so good. But I am mostly blessed by the changes.
It is all about my attitude. Keeping positive is helpful, not listening to
the news is also helpful.
Some of the changes this year for families all across
the US & the world is devastating. The families that will have a missing loved one at the dining room table this Christmas. Those in the military who lost their lives serving and protecting, also the law enforcement & firefighters, and those impacted by the multiple shootings this year.

My heart is broken. How can it be that someone could do such a horrific thing to strangers, children, their own family members?
I just don't have words. God allows free will, but how do you tell someone that has lost a 6 year old that God loves them? I know it in my heart, but the grief is so strong, the anger so fresh, I pray for peace and that love could cover them. We can join together stretching out our arms and weep with them.

So, in that, we hug our babies (kids of all ages) a little tighter and tell those we love just how glad we are to have them in our life. The truth is, we know not what tomorrow brings.

I am truly blessed today, and if you saw this post, I thank God that you are alive.

Go hug someone and pass along a smile to a stranger. THAT is what this season is all about.

I feel a bit like Linus, in A Charlie Brown Christmas. Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. I pray that for those hurting this season.


Thank you for indulging me. This wasn't what I had planned, but is surely what is on my heart!
