Oh Carole, my life long friend! She really knows how to make us all feel better about aging. She is homeschooling three of her five grands and they are all boys.
Joyce is a Louisana gal who refuses to spread anything but kindness and love and worship of Our Lord She encourages me most every single day and I like that!.
Between Loretta in New Mexico for silliness and laughter, Carole who I Have known for 62 years and Joyce. There is one other friend who makes me feel encouraged too. Jean D. We worked many swing shifts together in the hospital days. Jean actually worked the day shift in the billing office and came over to help when we were in a crunch which was lots of times. She lived not too far away from me and when my kids were small, she used to give me a ride home because she didn't want my hubby to have to haul a carload of kids at 11 o'clock at night to come pick me up. She was logical and kind and I still keep in touch with her although she moved to Texas some years ago. She shares encouragement daily too. These are the best kind of people to know.
A small fearless boy with his grandpa. He is a joy to watch. Smart and entertaining and a child who knows nothing but boundless love for those he is closest to. Every time he comes over he has to climb this old wooden posts with Grandpa's help of course. He recently read a book to his mom and it was about a dinosaur. He came to the word ferocious and put such emphasis on that word you could hear that dinosaur roar! At two and 8 months he has a rare kindness which is hard to find. He will always say he loves you and than proceed to list each phamily member from our phamily as well as each one from his mom's side. It makes me joyful!
My parents liked Lee Trevino and they would most definitely agreed with him on this one.
I love this, reminds me of Nick's running days. What wonderful memories those bring back.

Great thoughts, my friend. Oh, that darling boy's one to watch ... he's going places! Too, Ilove the expression on Avery's face when he's helping steady Brody.
Back in the 70's on a couple occasions, I got to watch Lee play. Not only comedic, but he was such a genuine soul; a crowd favorite.
That first meme is soooo true. 'Borrowing' that for my FB page! Have a sweet new (safe) week!
Thank you for the many smiles with this post!
Happy Birthday to Jake, and such a lovely warm tribute to him! Enjoyed reading all your thoughts, and for sharing the scripture verses, too!
