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

Joe's Not Sad No MO!

.

You, my bloggy visitors, were sure Joe couldn't remain a grump once he had spent a few minutes with darling little Carson - - - and you were RIGHT!

He's sad no mo!!!

(There's a video - - - wait for it, takes a minute or so to load)

How could anyone be sad with Carson around?

Here she is playing with a potato - - - something her Great Aunt Keetha used to do back in the day when she was this size.

I guess it's in the genes!

That or Sister Pam set her UP by giving her a potato to see what she'd do.
