The Two FFs

Everyone needs them.

They are such a great blessing in our lives.

And, you realize that more and more as you:

have a celebration for something in your life,
have a tragedy in your life,
have something you want to share with someone special,
need a listening ear,
get older.


So, today, I just want to tell my
FAMILY and FRIENDS

You rock my world.

Thank you.

It's Love!

My Laugh for the Day

Overstock.com - several months ago:

I thought it was very attractive. I like how it looks on our bed.

Allen, however, has made several comments on the number of pillows;
(there are nine)
why so many?
what's the purpose of all the pillows?
are they all necessary?

So, usually when he makes the bed, he only puts one or two pillows back on the bed and leaves the rest on the floor or dresser.

Today, however, he was feeling particularly helpful and sweet,

so when I stepped out of the shower

here's how I found the bed made:

Please notice: every pillow was used and put back on the bed!

Ahhh, LOVE!

Primary Purpose

"Teacher, I HAVE to go to the bathroom right now...I can't wait!" "Teacher, I went to Pirate's Pizza and got this tattoo." "Teacher, she got more candy than I did!" "Teacher, he's in my place." "Teacher, can I sit on your lap?" "Teacher, where's the necklace you were wearing last week?" "Teacher," (crying) "he hurt my finger!" "Teacher, I NEED a drink!" "Teacher, can we hear that story again?" "Teacher, I can't see! He crowded in front of me!" "Teacher, what does commandment MEAN?" "Teacher, you're pretty." And, with that, I know the purpose of Primary. It's to remind me just how precious these little kids are...honest, wiggly, squiggly, adorable, happy, hungry, eager, enthusiastic, and did I say honest? Not one child has ever told me - wrinkly, old - as I am that I'm pretty, so when Madison said that to me today, it was a thrill to my soul - I'm far from pretty, but looking so closely at her young, bright face, I felt a surge of joy and love!
