A child is a gift , not a burden. Nothing is as beautiful as a rainbow or mud puddle when you are seeing it through a child's eyes!. Me

Ditto, Kitkat22!

I remember being young and how the senses were all so much more sensitive as well as being in wonderment and awe at the creations of God!

A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

As always, an inspiration!!

I've been neglecting you, jrebel7!

I've also lost your phone number... again!!

Am house and dog sitting again where I usually do. Phone system is not working here though. Kind of scary for me, because if something happens to one of the dogs or me!

Hopefully, the phone situation will be fixed tomorrow.

Very wise and very true!

"Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words will never hurt you", is something that isn't true! Many times, it's the words that hurt the most!

YouTube - Phantom of the Opera (Learn to be lonely) - 127k


This is a beautiful song. I didn't care much for the singer who played the Phantom in the movie. No one could surpass Michael Crawford.:) I have so much to be thankful for but sometimes I feel so lost. I don't know why! Wonderful husband , kids, friends, grandchildren,siblings you all here on AMHD. I am blessed! Love the video with Bella.

"Count Your Blessings Instead Of Sheep"... Bing Crosby

I watched and listened to that, Kitkat22! Very much my type of story. Learning to live alone!

Thanks!

Thank you! You gave me my smile for the day.
