Even without my caption you know this is Disneyland. Mike, Amy and I spent the whole day there, 13 hours to be exact.
We go once a year on the day when Audrey is there with the Walnut High School band.
I will blog more about this later.
You probably love your spouse very much, but he/she may not feel that you do.
The book describes five different ways in which people express and receive love; acts of service, quality time, words of affirmation, physical touch, or gifts. The key is to discover your spouse’s love language and learn how to effectively express love and truly feel loved in return.
Elliot’s post made me laugh!
An experience of a bad stomachache caused the proverbial “his whole life flashed before him.”
It made me also consider my life. Life is good. I do enjoy living.
Life will even be better when I cross over to the other side of eternal living – heaven.
The most wasted of all days is that during which one has not laughed.
– Nicolas De Chamfort –
Audrey passed her permit test and started her driving lessons this past weekend. The instructor said she is very calm. She may be calm, but I sure am not!
She drove me to church yesterday. My back and neck ached from the tension when I got there!
“Can I drive home from church, mom?”
Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you;
he rises to show you compassion.
For the LORD is a God of justice.
Blessed are all who wait for Him!
isaiah 30:18
The Lord is ready, willing, and able to bless you. All we have to do is wait for Him.
Laura Ingalls Wilder, author of the Little House series of books, was born in 1867. Imagine her life as a pioneer, traveling in covered wagons across prairies, living in log cabins, and teaching in a tiny schoolhouse at the age of fifteen. Laura died in 1957 a the age of 90. The last years of her life were spent enjoying going on drives in a car, listening to the radio, and going across the country from Wisconsin to San Francisco, California. The world she grew up in and the world she retired in must have been dramatically different.

I had my 47th birthday last week on the 25th.
Presents I got: This water bottle from Audrey and Amy. I told Amy that I wanted a bottle for water since I like to get my suggested 6-8 glasses of water in my day. This is just perfect, and they helped the Walnut High School Track Team by buying this at their rummage sale. Yes, I washed it before using.
Today begins the year of the Dog.
We went to my dad’s house for dinner with my siblings’ family. I am blessed to have family who all get along. The kids all play together, we talk, laugh, swap stuff, give each other presents for our birthdays, lots of fun.
