Little Free Library Plus
I was happy to take a walk tonight in the cool air. I went down a street that I normally avoid because there are barking dogs there. I came to the house with the dogs, which was surprisingly quiet. On the corner of the front yard was a Little Free Library. It was painted red […]
Phoning Friend
Today I was looking through my social media comments and saw a friend’s name. At that same time, my phone rang and her name popped up. She was calling me. That was quite a surprise. I told her about the funny coincidence and we laughed. It had been a while since we talked and got […]
Cousin Cuties
My mom’s sister has 2 young great grandchildren. So, they are my cousin’s grandchildren. Today, my mom and I saw the pictures and a video that my cousin shared from the 4th of July. The little girls were just the cutest. We watched the video of the youngest one over and over as she described […]
First Mass
When I went to church this morning, I was surprised to see about 20 priests on the altar. It was the first Mass for a young priest who was recently ordained. The congregation was full of family and friends as well. It was a beautiful celebration. The music really add to the holiness and reverence […]
Thunderbirds
It was an exciting day around the city as the Air Force Academy graduation was today. President Biden was in town to address the graduates. And the Air Force Thunderbirds took to the sky. I had errands to run today, but saw them in formation a couple of times. There were a lot of people […]
Loving Eyes
As part of my morning prayers today, I read Psalm 65. It talks about how God has created such a beautiful world that we live in. I thought about some of the camping trips I have made. Several times, I have been blessed to be on the top of a large mountain and overlooking the […]
Hats For All
My mom’s piano friend came over today and told us a story of a woman that she knew from her church. Every week the woman would wear at hat to church. That reminded me of a woman I used to know who also wore a hat to church every week. We lovingly called her the […]
Sunday
Unfortunately, it is getting more and more difficult for my mother to attend Mass. This morning I decided to meet my son for the early Mass while my sister stayed with my mom. It had been a long time since I had been out early on a Sunday morning. There was little traffic and I […]
Children’s Affirmations
When I went to check the mail this evening, I decided to take a longer walk and went around the elementary school close by. The front of the school walkway was decorated with pictures and affirmations done by the children. Just looking at them made me smile. They were all different with sayings and pictures. […]
Mom’s Art
Mom had been working on coloring a picture of lovebirds. She thought it was a fitting way to commemorate her and my dad’s wedding anniversary. She finished the picture today and we displayed it with the couple of others she has done. They are color by number and she matches the colors recommended on the […]
