The number FOUR....

First, here in this picture are FOUR generations..... This is Char and her entire family, with me included!!




The same picture as the previous one, but with goofy faces....


Another reason I titled this post as # 4, is becoz this picture was taken four years ago with Hannah, Char's grand daughter. She was 2 then, and was reluctant to come to me...

This picture is of Hannah as well, 4 years later.... We get along great now. My, how she has grown!!


So I guess these are all the pictures of Christmas 2008.

New Year Resolution.....


How can I use the New Year
To better serve my Lord?
I’ll read my Bible every day,
And be more in accord.
I’ll find new ways to serve others;
I’ll love my neighbor, too.
I’ll focus on "give" instead of "get"
In everything I do.
I’ll forgive the people I’m mad at;
Angry feelings I’ll discard;
I’ll try to love my enemies,
Even though it’s hard.
In the new year, I’ll lift people up,
Instead of putting them down.
I’ll fill my heart with love and joy,
And never wear a frown.
I’ll let go of my worries;
I’ll put it all in His hands;
I’ll repent and try to sin less,
And obey all His commands.
These new year’s resolutions
Are difficult, at best,
But there’s something I can do each day
That will put my soul at rest:
I’ll love my Lord with all my heart,
With all my mind and soul,
And if I do that essential thing,
All the rest will be in control.

A very Happy New Year to all of you. May it be all that you hope for!!
