Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

Sunday Reruns - Dog-Gone Slipper Days

It's Sunday again, and you know what THAT means!?! It's time for Sunday reruns!!! Thanks so much to Chari over at Happy to Design for hosting this meme, "Sunday Favorites".

"The Pitter Patter of Little Feet"
(First posted on 12/15/07)

My friends the Shoemakers made a post on their blog the other day about their little tyke wearing his favorite slippers to help himself feel better when he was sick. That made me think of these:

The slippers our baby wore around the house every day when he was a toddler.

He nearly wore these "puppies" out before he outgrew them!!

Kind of hard now to imagine that they EVER fit him!!!!

Ahhh...I love the little bear slippers! Girl, it's a bittersweet thing...isn't it? To recall all of those sweet memories of our children when they were so small...and now...they've all grown! I sure giggled when I seen those cute little bear slippers...made me think of Russell's slippers! When I first met him, he had a pair of big ol' bear slippers...very much like your lil' guys! Hehe! It cracked me up!!! What a darling post to share with us today for Sunday Favorites, Keetha...I loved it!!!

Thank you so much for joining in with the fun of Sunday Favorites, Darlin'! Happy Sunday!!!
