Why thanks!

Have you ever thought about the blogging world? How vast it is? How my great-grandmother couldn't even understand the internet? Well, I have really enjoyed reading different blogs, learning about and from other people, being inspired and encouraged....

Marli tagged me and she has a really neat blog- and she's a sweet friend too! I remember when they came by us one Sunday afternoon and taught us the very fun game of Bananagrams! Aren't you glad for the capacity God gave us of memory? Thanks, Marli, for the award and thanks for keeping up! :)

The trick is to post seven things about myself and pass the award to fifteen other bloggers!

Seven things...hmm....

Number one: I love to cook.

Two- I've read Plutarch's Lives

3-I'm the third child in my family...

Four: I still enjoy playing in the rain!

Numbah five- I love children, and teaching children :)

Six- I love the ocean...even before I lived near it!

7- I serve a powerful and almighty God.

Sonnet 116

Let me not to the marriage of true minds

Admit impediments. Love is not love

Which alters when it alteration finds,

Or bends with the remover to remove:

O no! it is an ever-fixéd mark

That looks on tempests and is never shaken;

It is the star to every wandering bark,

Whose Worth's unknown, although his height be taken.

Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks

Within his bending sickle's compass come;

Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,

But bears it out even to the edge of doom:

If this be error and upon me proved,

I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

~William Shakespeare~

"Wedded love is founded on esteem."
- Elijah Fenton

"Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh." Genesis 2:24

My dear friend Julia was married to a truly wonderful man last Friday evening. It was a beautiful wedding....I'm so thankful I know her...and Lee....They're the kind of people that make the world go 'round for me. Their example of true love, commitment and dedication to God encourages me every day. I love them both so much. :)
