Today is my dad's birthday. He would have been 82 yrs old. He died twelve years ago after an eight year illness.
He never knew my son but he and my daughter were very close until he died. They were close when my daughter was small too. Grandpa was special!!!!
I wish he was still here.

* Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.

* When we do the best that we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another.

About Me
- Pamela
- I am a mom and wife and child of the Living God. I started this blog to keep track of the Seven things project to declutter my house.I finished that project but am still trying to reduce, reuse and recycle. Now I am using this blog for my random thoughts and observations about life and my crochet projects and charity projects.

Psalm 150:6
6 Let everything that has breath praise the LORD.
Praise the LORD!
Proverbs 31:13
13 She seeks wool and flax,
And willingly works with her hands.
* "Our ruins become places of hope in the eyes of God, for He sees their potential"
* In this life we cannot do great things. We can only do small things with great love.
Mother Theresa
* Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.
Mother Theresa
- * Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
- Helen Keller
Helen Keller
* When we do the best that we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another.
