My husband Rocks, Friday!...and everyday!



This picture was taken on a cruise ship to Jamaica two years ago after a bumpy night at sea. Do you see his smile? He had just cleaned up throw up from the bathroom sink because I didn't make it to the toilet in time!
We had the patches on...we had motion sickness tablets...it just got rough one night and oh boy, that one night had everyone scrambling to their cabins. Jay's loving kindness when I am ill is tremendous. I did not grow up with a father this way. And Jay's father was absent most of his life. Jay's example is Jesus.
He longs to break the cycle of what we both grew up with and show his son how to be a better example of servitude to his bride one day. He absolutely dotes on me. He has made some big messes in our married life, but he has always gotten out a bigger rag and cleaned it up. He absolutely amazes me at how he does not give up or give in to self pity when he does mess up.
My husband rocks every day but I love paying tribute to him on Fridays! If I wasn't on a budget I would buy a ringtone for my phone for every time he calls me from the song "simply the best" because that's what he is to me! (I'll get it one day and surprise him)
Song of Solomon 2:4 "He brought me to the banqueting house, And his banner over me was love"

Some more thanks!

How thankful I am for this!


Thankful Thursdays

I am thankful for Jesus and His Word that tells me "by His stripes we are healed"

I am thankful for my Bible that I am able to read freely

I am thankful for being able to look in on my child while he is sleeping!

I am thankful for the quiet of morning

I am thankful for the word 'honesty' and all that it entails

I am thankful for the knowledge that people pleasing is poison to one's self...God pleasing is the way to go!

I am thankful for MP, PK, CB, CM, SN, DM and KN...your love and support for me during these last few days has lifted me up. Thank you.

1 Chronicles 16:8 "Oh, give thanks to the Lord! Call upon His name; Make known His deeds among the peoples!"

Why aren't you smiling?

Josh just got home from football practice. He hands me this full pack of football pictures and smiles. Ooooh! Aaaaah! They're great, honey, but why aren't you smiling?

Mom! It's football ... there's no smiling in football!

Oh, is that like baseball...there's no crying in baseball?

Mom, you're so funny!

What? I don't get it?

He goes to shower just shaking his head and laughing at me. I guess that means it's like baseball and no crying in baseball! Anyway, I wish he was smiling but it's football!

Happy Tuesday

Just in from the Orlando Heart Center...all day affair really and I'm extremely tired. But I saw a bumper sticker on the way home that said this "No Jesus, No Peace...Know Jesus, Know Peace".

I thought it was very appropriate. I loved Denise's post today...we have to focus on the Lord and when we do we will know peace.

Loved the sign above too ... I want to plant them all over the world! Or at least in my yard! I really need some sleep...so until tomorrow

James 3:18 "Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace"
