Happy first of July! It is exciting to start a new month and to have a new memory verse! Friends, we are on verse 8! We started back in March and look how many verses we have memorized! Way to go!!! I have finished my passage in Philippians and am moving on to a verse in the Psalms. For this current season, I have been enjoying reading a chapter in Psalms every day.

Finding Beauty in Every Face & Place – A Reflection
Last week while waiting for The Salesman to pick me up outside a store downtown, I snapped this lovely reflection mere moments before I heard the beep beep of his car horn signaling he was ready to roll. I marveled at the beauty when I was standing outside the shop window in person soaking it all in; but, in reflecting on the reflection, I see much that I truly think is beautiful.

The term *Hair Wizard* was coined by Beth Moore, and I ... Read More about Finding Beauty in Every Face & Place – You, Beautiful You!

It has been so much fun to watch this second nest and the six eggs that hatched and filled the little nest to overflowing. This is the second nest on the back porch this season! Remember the first nest and the four little eggs and the fun that I had keeping track of every day of CornTeen with the ...
