It has been a busy week with picnics, ball practice and family fun. I have lots of pictures, but I probably will not post any until next week. Cadens Kindergarten Graduation is tonight. Hopefully, we can get some more family pictures today and tonight at the graduation and party.
Beth, Isaiah and I will leave at 4:00 a.m. tomorrow to head home. It has been up around 90 degree here, I'm not sure what it is at home. We don't want to be picky, but we don't like driving in rain, so we hope it doesn't rain while we're driving in the holiday traffic.
It has been nice to be with the family since we haven't seen them since Christmas. We could not stay, but it would have been nice, since today is their last day of school. It just seems like time flies.
Until next time...
Kansas Trip...
Thank the Lord for traveling mercies. I'm blogging from Kansas this morning. Beth, Isaiah and I got here last night around 7:00 p.m. It took us around 13 hr. We traded drivers about every 2 hrs. Isaiah traveled pretty good for a 2 yr. old. By our stopping and letting him get a little run in, he wasn't too unhappy. Of course, the last change, Beth did have a little trouble getting him to sit in the car seat... his little legs did not want to bend. So, we knew that it was best not to do any more driver changing. He's a trouper!
It was cold in the 40's when we left, but it was almost 90 when we got to Missouri. So, the weather change is significant. The gas price is too. We bought gas in Missouri for $3.64, but right down the road there were some stations that had it for $3.44. In Ohio we had paid $3.89. Now folks, that is a significant drop!
So, that's how the trip went. Well, I'm off to a full day of fun in the sun! We're going to meet Kinsey and Cadens school at the park where they are having a field trip. This is a cute little park with rides and flowers and a little petting zoo. I don't think the rides open until Memorial Day, but everything else is nice.
Have a great day!

Seeking & Finding God
."..seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul." Deuteronomy 4:29
Isn't it comforting to know that we will find God if we seek Him with our whole heart and soul? Believe God's word, He is just a prayer away.

Saturdays Tea
We had such a nice tea at the Pastor's House Sat. Stephanie Phillips and Diana Beatty did a great job with the tea. The weather was nice, the food was great and the ladies looked beautiful in their hats. What an enjoyable precious time it was. It is such a pleasant memory !
I just got around to downloading my pictures from the tea Sat. I thought you might enjoy the few that I have. Others have more, maybe they will share what they have, too. My gallery:

Ramblings...
My Mothers Day was pretty much spent by myself and in the After Hours Clinic. I talked to most of my children and my mother a couple times yesterday and felt their love and compassion. They are a wonderful comfort. I watched our morning service on the net, then I went to the clinic and then got home about 2:30. My family which were supposed to have dinner at my house, instead, had dinner at Wayne's & Wilma's house. Thanks to them so much for going on in spite of everything. They are a great help!
When you think that you are nothing in this big, vast world, that you are just one little being, remember this, that God uses us, one by one. We are each one, individually, responsible to do the work that He has for us to do on this earth. Someday, people will walk by your casket and look into a face that is cold and still. They won't remember your clothes, your house or your accomplishments. They will remember you as an individual. I was thinking of this quote from Helen Keller, “I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can do." Today, do something for God, only He know what you are supposed to do and only you can find that out.
I was looking for a poem that I had written about my mother a couple years ago. I couldn't find it, so my thoughts went a different direction this morning. That's how I get when I ramble. Maybe that's as it should be. God Bless and have a great day!

Happy Mothers Day
Happy Mothers Day to a wonderful mom! You've always been there loving, caring and praying. I always know that I can count on you because you've always cared for me as well as anyone that is within your range of contact. Your example has been an inspiration to many. Thanks again for everything, Happy Mothers Day, I love you!
