Prize Darts Award

It's humbling to be recognized by your peers. Thank you, Sitka, for this award. I'm honored.

What exactly is the award? Premio Dardos means “prize darts” in Spanish. It is given for recognition of cultural, ethical, literary, and personal values transmitted in the form of creative and original writing. Here are some rules to be followed if you choose to participate in passing this blog award on to others:

• First, accept the award by posting it on your blog along with the name of the person that has granted the award and link to her blog.

• Second, pass the award to other blogs that are worthy of this acknowledgment, remembering to contact each of them to let them know they have been selected for this award.

Here are some exceptional blogs I would like to recommend that I feel are worthy of this acknowledgment:

Life of a Navy Wife is a journal of a military spouse. This Navy Wife should not only get a blog award but a medal.

Dream Big is an artsy, creative blog with everything from soup to nuts written in a humorous style with a lot of energy.

Sassy Granny is a blog with a lot of wisdom, style and sassiness.

    Thank you for visiting my blog and posting a kind comment. I get excited when I get to meet new siblings in Christ. Yes, I went thru "in-law stuff", too. It took me a while to forgive but God let me realized everything in His perfect time. It's just not right for me to not be able to forgive because of what He had done. I love your blog,specially your pic. So welcoming! Congrats too on your award. I know you deserve it! God bless.

    Congratulations sweet friend! RCUBEs instructed me how to get it in my sidebar. I chuckled :-D along with you when you commented on my site. I, too, wanted to nominate you for the award, but someone got to you before me.

    It's great to have friends out in the world who love the Lord like we do and I'm glad that I have met you. We would make a good team to pray together with. I look forward to more of your postings.

    Warm hugs & blessings,
    Alleluiabelle

    Hi there! I popped over from Sassy Granny's when I saw your byline... miles of smiles. I'm known for my smile, so I knew we had something in common. More than I thought, now that I've visited. A pleasure to meet you!

A Memorial Day Reflection

  Memorial Day is always noteworthy for me and my girls.  Next Thursday marks the third year of missing their father, my husband. So many thoughts  run through my mind.  The journey of loss takes on various emotions.  The strongest feeling, at first, was emptiness.  In a split second, I would forget he departed forever.  I imagined things I needed to talk to him about when he got back home.  My mind is realistic now.  He's not coming back.  There will be no more times of sitting on the porch swing together on the front deck staring at the moon and the stars.  He would tell me all he knew about the majestic night sky. I have so much I wish I could tell him, like the excitement of seeing our oldest grandchild make a decision to follow Jesus and get baptized on Mother's Day!  And our little Amy, 11 years old, I wish he could have seen her on stage receiving her induction to the National Honor Society. Our daughters have their own ...

Mama's Lipstick

I always wished I could do things with my mom like shop in the mall, share makeup secrets or go to the movies and watch romantic comedies.  My wish never materialized.     My mama behaved like a tomboy.   She loved baseball and pitched with a strong right arm.   She could care less about the latest fashion or the latest movies featured on the big screen.   She never polished her fingernails.    One day after elementary school, I walked into the house to find my mom all dolled up in front of the bathroom mirror, foundation crème, powder, eyebrow pencil and rouge all over the counter sink.  “Who are you?” I asked, thrilled to see my mama putting on the Ritz.  Makeup in place and blotted, she immediately took it off.  “I don’t like the way it feels,” she exclaimed. She retired in Arizona and protected her dry lips with a light rose lipstick, the color of natural lips, a step above ChapStick.  She wore it a few tim...

Book Review of Biblical Minimalism and Give Away

What does minimizing look like?  To the empty nester it may mean downsizing real estate.  To the co-dependent, it may mean pitching some toxic friendships they tend to collect.  I thought I had a handle on Biblical minimalism, but I wasn’t even close.  Biblical minimalism is much more than cleaning out a drawer and discarding unwanted things into a box to take to the thrift store. In her book, Biblical Minimalism, Cheryl E. Smith defines Biblical minimalism as “a complete, whole person release of anything unlike Jesus, a letting go of everything that hinders us from following Him wholeheartedly and single- mindedly , and a relinquishing of all that brings us under bondage to this earthly, very temporary life.” The author gives us a visual of a whole pie that is divided into eight slices.  Each slice describes our lives with areas to analyze to see if pruning or adjustment is needed.  I won’t name them all, but one example is the “emotional ...
