The Eclectic Company: Sunday Reruns

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

Look What I Stole - - -
(first posted 1/16/08)

Right off of Daughter Number One's blog.

I just don't have anything new or exciting of my OWN to post - - - so I raided Keri's blog and copied these cute photos.

Mackinley James wearing Great Grandpa John's (we call him "PeePaw") chef apron and calling China on someone's cell phone.

Enjoying the train set Papoo picked out for him for Christmas.

Macky and Kaeleigh all snuggled up in their hoodie blankie's Kamma got them for Christmas.

(Addendum from the editor: For those of you who follow this blog, isn't it AMAZING how quickly these grans of mine grow up????? NOW Mackinley probably would know exactly HOW to phone China!)

lilmomma said...: I saw your hubby tonight! Jackson bonked his head and was throwing up so we wondered if it was a concussion and we just happened to get your husband to check him. I don't think he recognized me though. And I was too worried about Jack to bring it up. BUt I thought I'd tell you I appreciate what he does and how nice he is. :); May 2, 2010 at 1:05 AM

podso said...: Such cute photos of your grans ... and enjoyed your CR pics too. On to another year of Sunday Favorites! That teacup on my post was given to me by a dear friend from her collection, when I lost most of mine in a crash! So it has special meaning to me (as do many of my things!); May 2, 2010 at 2:22 PM
Natasha in Oz said...: They are very steal-able pictures! How cute are your little grandchildren!

Jewel said...: You know that you can't actually call China from the average phone. ;) I wish you could!

They sure have grown! I remember this post in it's original form! Now that Mallory's here I get to watch her grow and remember when Leah (22 months now!) was that young and small!; May 3, 2010 at 10:25 AM
Angie said...: Well for sure this one wouldn't know how to ring China. Australia is easy enough as long as you stand on your head.; May 3, 2010 at 2:40 PM

Reva said...: Keetha,

Thanks for stopping in on my post again. Are you a theif? :) Wow, I know exactly what you mean about grandkids growing so very quickly. Mariah will turn 9 this summer which is so unbelievable to me. At least she's cute and that makes it all the better (Just kidding, but aren't all our grands just the cutest?
A gal gave me a little door sign that says "I've noticed that other people's grandchildren aren't nearly as cute as mine." Well I've seen a lot of peoples grandkids and I think they are all adorable because of their innocense and bright eyes full of wonder.
Yours fit that bill and the cuteness test as well. Take care.; May 4, 2010 at 12:02 PM
