“O Thou who art the all pervading glory of the world, we bless Thee for the power of beauty to gladden our hearts.
We praise Thee that even the least of us may feel a thrill of the creative joy when we give form and substance to our thoughts and, beholding our handiwork, find it good and fair. “.

"Come, and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what He has done for me.
I cried out to Him with my mouth; His praise was on my tongue.
If I had cherished sin in my heart, the LORD woud not have listened and heard my voice in prayer.
Praise be to God, Who has not rejected my prayer or withheld His love from me!" Psalm 66:16-20

Sibling Saturday Picnic

For the first time in nearly 3 years, all 5 of my daddy's kids were together in one place !  We celebrated with a Fathers' Day picnic.

I'd have to say that a good time was had by all, and I'm so glad that we got this shot that shows that too ! I praise God that we are all alive and healthy.  My love goes to my half-brother, who lives in Murfreesboro,  and my half-sister who lives in California, as well; I wish that we could have ALL been there !




In other news, (big to me, if not anyone else)  I took the plunge and cut off all that hair !  Phew !

      Too bad I got impatient last Fall and cut off about 4 inches. I could have donated the hair for cancer wigs. But it wasn't quite long enough !

    Cut mine last October and I only have 2 regrets.
    1: I wish I had done it sooner
    2: I did have some gorgeous beaded hair pieces that just will not work on short hair.

    Thanks, Jan. It had been such a hassle for the last 2 years, taking so long in the shower and afterwards, then to be just put up in a ponytail or clip, causing a headache. But I felt like I'd be cutting off my youth if I let it go ! I actually meant to cut it to a shoulder length or just a bit shorter, but decided to just go all the way. Sleeping is easier without the hair to pull out from under my neck each time I roll over, but boy am I a sight in the morning ! But that's a pretty quick fix !
