Grandparents

I was blessed to spend the weekend with my "grandparents". Well, they are not really my grandparents and I just met them for the 1st time this weekend, but after being with them I realized how much I miss grandparents. So, I think that I will adopt them, and I think that they have adopted me too. They treated me like a grandchild - fed me lots of good food, introduced me to their friends and showed me that they believed in me. Yes, I am blessed!



What are you listening to?

In my house there is always music. Usually it is Brother's, but sometime it is Mom's classical music - that helps her paint or it is music coming from Dad's computer while he pays bills. In the car it's 89.3 and at work the radio is always on. We live in a world of noise and sometimes we miss the song because of all of the noise. "...He will rejoice over you with singing." (Zeph. 3:17) What a beautiful song - how could I have missed it.

Do you hear it? Just stop for a second and listen.

235. Suddenly aware of the peepers singing praise to you... and a part of the song you are singing over me
241. The wind's quite wisper in the trees
250. The soft snap of the flag in the evening breeze
263. A hum of wings as it flies by
264. Countless different bird songs - joining in the song
265. I heard the song from the bumble bee
273. Seagulls laughing
