Being Go-Get-‘Em Cheerleaders
I know our children and grands would tell you we are proud, adoring grandparents. We purpose to be their #1 fans and cheerleaders. I’d like to introduce you to my BONUS granddaughter. This is our spunky and adorable Adeline aka Addie. What a joy she is to us and the many cheering fans for Westlake…
Running MY Race
We love attending our church’s Wednesday night’s “Family Night”. We enjoy a delicious meal then move to one of our many choices of Bible Studies – from young to old. I particularly enjoy our Women’s Bible Study. This blog is spawned from last week’s start of this new year’s study. It is based on Hebrews…
Amazing Goldies! This is for YOU!
The 50th anniversary is famously known as the golden wedding anniversary, with gold being both the milestone’s associated color and the gift material. So, it’s safe to say that even when we are turning “50” and beyond, we are “golden”! Fifty is just a number and I am saying: “It’s time to shake off restricting…
Running our Race in San Antonio
We did it! Eighteen of us, including a sweet baby in his stroller, walked, jogged, or ran (in the case of my grandson, Payton, and his buddy, Jaiden, age 14). BTW, Jaiden placed first in his age group. All was to support EMwomen. Nothing to compare to the 26.2 miles and 13.1 marathons Run the…
Heaven’s Doorway
Three weeks previously, I was at Karen & George’s for a week to help with Mom and give them some respite. Mom was with us in body, but the dementia had taken so much away from this dear one. The only one she recognized occasionally, was Karen, her daughter. Mom could still manage her walker…
Running our OWN Race
My son asked me: “Is that an Oura ring you’re wearing?” I replied that it was. He said he saw his friend wearing one and wondered if it worked. Intentionally, I run/walk/exercise as much as I can, when I can. But, there are days when “I’m a squatter!” I just sit as I write blogs,…
Peace is Found in El Lugar Secreto
Have you been to el lugar secreto? Ten years ago, the day after my Sweetheart’s funeral, I flew to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico to spend Thanksgiving with my son and his family. It was the perfect place of beauty and tranquility to refresh and revive me and remember the man I loved so dearly. I…
See Ya’ Later
Unlike attending a funeral before these times, within the last two months, I traveled to two funerals via cyberspace — Facebook Live. While it’s not the same as being there in person to support and encourage those whose loved one passed on, it is a blessing to be in this technology age that affords us…
Be the Cheerleader in Someone’s Life
Cheerleader — an enthusiastic and vocal supporter of a team or person. My son’s 50th marathon at 50 years old was everything we (his cheering squad AND for Ryan) had hoped and prayed it would be. He succeeded in accomplishing yet another big life goal. We were all decked out in shirts that showed our…
He’s Achieving His Goal – 50 in 50
“He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary; they will walk and not…
