Make time to enjoy the beauty around you. This is the sunrise on the Maumee river. My husband and I like to get up early on Saturday mornings and watch the sunrise. A precious time of the day!

Another Valuable Lesson #26
This week it seems every where I go I am faced with breast cancer…. I attended the funeral of a friend that had stage 4 breast cancer. Each morning I would pray for a miracle for her and her family. She got her miracle she is now resting in Jesus’ arms. She leaves behind her husband and 3 children. She fought so hard and is an amazing example. I will miss my friend.
I also visited a dear friend in the hospital that had a double Mastectomy, Visited another friend that had reconstructive surgery from her mastectomy and got a phone call from another that just found out she has breast cancer. I am wondering if the Lord is giving me a sign to spread the word.
Ladies we all need to have our mammograms and self breast exams.

Better days are coming!
When I was a kid my Grandma stayed at our home quite a bit. When I would get home from school she would hide, but when I open the door I knew she was there. She could never figure out how I knew……The secret I could smell her PalMall cigarettes. In the mornings she would have toast and hot chocolate waiting. The toast…well,the butter melted just right on every square inch of it and to this day I can’t get that perfect. There are so many things I love and miss about her. When my grandma was unable to stay alone she moved into to my folks home. I am thinking that was the greatest gift my parents gave to me and my family. The love for the elderly and family!
Grandma has been gone for years, but I think of her often and now I see her in things we do. Grandma would tell me when I was stressed with life “Can- better days are coming!” I do have to believe they are

Another Valuable Lesson #24
“Greatest man in history, named Jesus, had no servants, yet they called him Master. Had no degree, yet they called him Teacher. Had no medicines, yet they called him Healer. He had no army, yet kings feared Him. He won no military battles, yet he conquered the world. He committed no crime, yet they crucified Him… He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today.”

“Lost time is never found again” By Ben Franklin
I wondered what they did in Ben Franklin’s day?
All the distractions we have today.
We have so many things that compete for our time. I deactivated my Facebook for awhile I just need a break from sitting watching a screen of what is going on in our lives. I am hoping to get more done!
