Each Day Better Than The Day Before!

It has been an amazing journey I've had raising my son. In fact it has been quite an amazing and different journey I've had living life in general. I can remember seeing and holding his tiny feet and hands in mine right after birth. To this day I can still remember the first thought that came to mind...."that I wanted to remember those tiny hands forever"! Because I knew that they would grow and grow.

Holding my son's small body close to mine forced me to realize how his life depended on well I could care for him. The memories would be all I would have once he entered into toddler, teenage and adolescent stages. This is what prompted me to take pictures of him and myself progressing throughout the years. Each year and inches taller and facial features changing (his and mine), I can only imagine what the next year would bring.

February 22 was his twenty-second birthday and I am so blessed to be able to enjoy yet another year watching him become a adult. Praying each step of the way that God guide his feet, ways and thoughts.

Power To Change: I am Thankful!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I recently had a moment...ok... a few moments that lasted several days where I felt that the world was against me. But I discovered something that I already knew, that I needed to consult the Master to help me sort my feelings. I needed to pray that God reveal to me my errors and faults and show me WHY I was feeling this way.

It wasn't that the world/people were necessarily against me, but it was the enemy who preys on me feeling low. So you know, God has already shown me that I can be smarter that the devil. All I had to do was simply rely on Him for answers. He has always been my Strength, my Support, my Inspiration and my Guide.

So I did what I should have done first...PRAY! Prayer really changes things...most of all it changed how I was feeling and you know something else? I am Thankful!

PLEASE BE SAFE AND THANKFUL THIS SEASON!
