The 6 pictures above are items in the layette that I knitted for the soon to be new Great Granddaughter #6. The green is a soft green and shows best where I have everything on the back of the couch.

chemo hats Feb 2008

2008-08-30T20:19:00.000-07:00

In Feb. a friend issued a challenge on several Yahoo groups to see how many hats we could get for chemo therapy patients before Apr. 1st. We ended up with just over
100. I had been shooting for 100 hats myself but, I got a late start and several migraines later, I ended up with knitting 71 hats.

I was luck enough to be the proud owner of an American Paint Horse for 20+ years. I lost Shawnee 6 years ago this Nov, 07 as age finally caught up with her. I would recommend an American Paint Horse to anyone that is looking for an even tempermented horse as Shawnee was as sweet as they came. Shawnee was Sorrel and White and you can see the differences on both sides of her from these pictures.

Favorite Sayings and Bible Verses

2007-05-18T13:21:00.000-07:00

THOUGHT:
Rather than "looking out for" only "number 1," we are to look
out for those deserving of good -- whether that be help, aide,
praise, love, affection, attention, praise -- and to act decisively
to give them what they need and deserve. We are to be a people, as
Paul tells us, that Jesus saved so we would be "eager to do good
deeds" (Titus 2:14).

"The love of the older and disciplined heart is as coals, deep-burning, unquenchable." -- Henry Ward Beecher

"Security in a relationship lies neither in looking back to what it was in nostalgia, nor forward to what it might be...but living in the present relationship and accepting it as it is now." -- Anne Morrow Lindbergh

"The most desired gift of love is not diamonds or roses or chocolate. It is focused attention." -- Rick Warren
