It looks like a beautiful day in the making. Sun shining so bright. Even my plants seem to be lifting their leaves to enjoy the warm sunshine. It's a good day. Thank you, Lord.
I have to get busy. I'm going to a tea today. There are 6 of us ladies that are retired school employees that try to get together every month or so. Have tea and cookies and talk (and a lot of laughs). We talk about our pets, bring pictures and stories and we laugh.
No one is allowed to mention husbands, children, grandchildren....only pets. Reason: Each thinks their husband is the most wonderful man in the world.....or on the other hand...the worst.. Their children might be the most beautiful, most clever, smart, gifted. Or on the other hand..........? So, they are all off limits.
Now pets, we get quite caught up in these precious little or big members of our families. But as a rule we keep it on a pleasant level. Bringing pictures and stories of our furry friends.
This is my two little darlings. Emily and Sara...Emily in back is the boss, Sara is more laid back.
Since we have all spent at least 20 years of our lives working with children and young adults...These are not off limits. So we laugh and tell our stories...As Jimmy Durante use to say, "I have a million of them." I think a life spent with young people keeps you young in your attitude. You will be more tolerant of the young...You just can't help but love them. ...All of them.
We have a little devotional each time by one of us. We each put ten dollars in the kitty, which we will use for some good cause as the need arises. After we have chatted, eaten, laughed and remembered...we part until next month. Stay well, dear friends...
This is the day the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalm 118:24
