Saying Thanks Is Just Not Enough

November 11, 2010Written by Joy

Saying thanks to all the veterans and their families, just doesn’t seem like enough. The sacrifices they made are the reason why we are able to live in the land of the free. We are free to say what we want, free to worship God, free to vote, free to homeschool, free to choose what is best for me and my family.

So even though thanks is not enough for what all you have done for us, thanks is all I have.

Thank You.

What Kind Of Spider Is This?

Any idea what kind of spider this is? It was hanging from the corner of our house. The first time I saw it, it was alive. However, when I took these pictures, it was right after a really cold night and I think the cold killed it. We have just never seen a spider like this before. It is pretty cool looking though!

So what do you think?

A Proud Momma

It does a momma good to see her children go and help a neighbor rake leaves, put them in a bucket and carry them to the garden plot to dump out. Thank you God for giving my children a tender heart and a love to help others.
