I know I should of done it sooner but this last winter and the colds and aliments have gotten me down and grandbaby's  run mom mom ragged lol. When I watch this video of my Zierra I think of Queen Tina's niece and her love of horses. Zayne ate grits,poached eggs and fried taters mash together for his supper last night it was a huge bowl and he was hoofing it down his mouth fly open like a baby birds first meal. He said "MORE MORE" lol he's such a good boy he trys any food and seams to like everything. Both of them love canalopes and corn on the cob. Zayne had his first cotton candy. bad move on my part now he rip open his mattress and was eating the cotton out of it I guess he thought it was cotton candy kids gota lovem. There's never a dull moment here. Zierra wants to be the next Shirley Temple she pretends all the time  only 3 and she is a monster zombie coinsure thanks to her Aunt she comes after me in a deep scary voice  hands up like claws and says LIVE BRAIN  LIVE BRAINS  or aratmaphobia run MOM MOM spiders . I have to share this on also hope no one takes offence she wipe her bottom and a tiny poop was one the paper she said look mom mom  I said lovely now throw it away  she did then she turns to me and places her hand against her cheek and with the sweetest smile she said it was a baby poop I almost died I laugh so hard I couldn't breath like I said never a dull moment. Well God Bless I know lovely sunday morning chat  I do so hope you enjoy it I will add the video now if Xanga hasn't beep me for this blog BIG HUGS And LOVE to all ~*S*M*I*L*E*~

You Are Special

Did anyone ever tell you
Just how special that you are
The light that you emit
Might even light a star.

Did anyone ever tell you
How important you make others feel
Well, someone out here is smiling
About a friendship that is real!

Did anyone ever tell you
How many times when they were sad
Your email made them smile a bit
In fact...it made them glad.

Did anyone ever tell you
Just how much that they love you
Well, my dearest online friend
Today...I'm telling you!

Arms Of Mercy 

When trials are your portion 
And your night is ever long, 
When heartbreak steals your laughter 
And your soul has lost its song...

When little comforts leave you 
And you're left with stinging tears, 
When loneliness envelops 
And you're bound by doubts and fears...

Cry out for tender mercies, 
Let the Lord's sweet love embrace.
Cast that heavy load upon Him 
And look full into His face.

Rest your eyes and heart upon Him, 
Let Him soothe your weary brow.
Let Him wipe your tears of sorrow 
As you linger with Him there.

Nestling in God's arms of mercy 
Brings assurance, hope and peace.
You can know that in your struggles, 
God's embrace brings sweet release.

Those Who Love You

If someone should hurt you
And say a thing unkind,
Remember what I write you,
And keep these thoughts in mind.

For everyone who makes you cry,
There are three who make you smile.
And a smile will last a long, long time,
But a tear just a little while.

Don't let someone who hates the world
Cause you to hate it too.
Behind the clouds is a golden sun,
And a sky that's full of blue.

If someone said a thing that's cruel,
Don't let it get to you,
Your achievements are greatly numbered,
And your faults are very few.

So if a certain person 
Should act a certain way,
Think of those who love you 
And don't let it spoil your day.

Jesus On The 4th Of July

We gather ‘round to celebrate

On Independence Day

Pay homage to our country

As the children run and play.

With barbeques and picnics

And fireworks in the air

The flag we own is proudly flown

To show how much we care.

The stars and stripes spell freedom

She waves upon the breeze

While bursts of colors can be seen

Above the towering trees.

This is all quite wonderful

We revel in delight

But God above in divine love

Has brought this day to light.

With just a stroke of liberty

A touch of His great hand

He gave democracy to us

And helped this country stand. 

The stripes upon our stately flag

Were touched by His sweet grace

Each star of white that shines so bright

Reflects His loving face.

So as you turn to face the flag

For battles that were fought

Be filled with pride for those who died

And freedoms that were bought. 

But don’t forget to thank the One

That gives the bright display

The reason why we paint the sky

On Independence Day
