"D" is for Daily Living

Oh the "D" things I can dream up! I did not wish to engage in conversation about the fire disasters here in Colorado. But because they are part of my life and causing much discomfort in this darn hot weather we are experiencing.
Prayer is important in this day and age. So lots of prayer for Colorado and those directly involved with the loss of their homes, some loss of lives and loss of the dependability that comes with our daily living.
My mom would ask me this question whenever I felt the need to complain. Prayer is the first and last thing I do  each day.

With Father's Day this Sunday our oldest daughter would say this to her dad. I once read about a woman who was dying. She wrote a letter to each one of her children and told them they could not read it until her death. She detailed each quality she loved about each child and in each letter she said "you were always my favorite". She swore them to secrecy and each one smiled thinking they had always been moms favorite! A sweet story to share with you today.
I think these words are so true. We are always a step behind where we should be. But each day we live brings a new challenge, a new idea and always a memory to treasure in the coming years.
I hope you don't mind all the google images I shared with you here.
Peter Pan. He knew a few things about life. He was smart, never wanting to grow up! I look around my life and sometime I wish  were just a kid again! Would I want to do it all over, no way! But having a "kid" moment is good for the soul.
Now settle down and visit Ms.Jenny She is our teacher and we need to thank her for these weekly letter challenges.

  2. Good morning, my friend. Hope your day will be a nice one. The wind was chilly out here this morning, so I hope it will be cooler this afternoon when I need to bake cupcakes for tomorrow's snack at Bible school. Of course, I waited until the last possible day to do it. This year I've been the snack helper and I must say that I've enjoyed it. Having great helpers has been a blessing, too. Enjoy the coming weekend.♥♫
