Summer of Psalms: Jesus Loves the Little Children

Crazy in love with my new cousin. Photo courtesy of Bonnie Logan.
Psalm 148:11-13 (KJV) Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth: Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children: Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.


I love kids. All of them. They make me feel young and carefree.

This past weekend, I got to do some cool things with and for children. On Friday, Rainbows United, the company I work for, hosted a Fashion Show at Camp Woodchuck. The kids had so much fun and they all looked great. I was honored to be able to organize the Baking Brigade that made all the goodies the kids enjoyed.

On Saturday, our church hosted a baby shower for our newest MBC family member. Little Evelyn was a perfect angel on her big day. We played games and ate delicious cookies. Our darling girl got some wonderful new stuff for her nursery.

I was in heaven when I got to hold and feed Evelyn a bottle. She is such a good baby!

Jesus is big on kids, too. He wanted them to feel free to approach Him during His ministry on earth. Jesus taught the disciples in Matthew 18 that they should become as little children if they wanted to enter Heaven.

Children live, love and forgive freely and openly. We can learn so much from them. I don't want to forget my childlike attitude.

How about you?

Female in Motion Health Update

I am at Cancer Treatment Centers of America in Zion, IL, tonight. I flew in last night, spent all day in the waiting room and appointments. I have a headache, my feet hurt, my burns hurt and I'm exhausted. Man, I hate it when I'm whiny. The good news is, I'm doing well. As Dr. Citrin put it, I'm one tough woman. He was shocked that I was able to travel so soon after finishing radiation. He took one look at the burns under my arm and prescribed some aloe vera gel with lidocaine and some pain meds to help me sleep.  I will start Arimidex this week, too. In the bad news department, I am not in any state of mind to write tonight. I have to be up early in the morning to catch a flight home, so I will say good night and God bless each and every one of you: for your prayers, for your support, for being you. As I promised, I will post the piece I've been working on very soon. Thanks for understanding. *** Notable Quote:  " John 14:27 (KJV) Peace I leave w...

I Can't Get No Satisfaction

Too much of a good thing is not good at all!  When I was a kid of six or eight, I had an obsession. It was a food obsession, particularly with Chicken in a Biskit crackers. It was a doomed relationship from the start, because even at that tender age, I realized the glaring spelling error. I found a box of those crackers in the cabinet one day, quietly put them under my shirt, and slipped downstairs to the family room, where I proceeded to watch Major Astro and eat the entire box . It wasn't much later when my tummy started to protest. Too much of a good thing was definitely not a good thing. After spending several hours in the bathroom that evening, I learned a valuable lesson: Even the best food doesn't taste good in reverse. Since that day, even the sight of one of those crackers makes me  slightly nauseated. I can't go near them. Seems like a lot of us are looking for something to fill in the nooks and crannies of our lives. The temporary satisfaction that an...
