"Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier.  Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, and kindness in your smile."  ~~ copied

Yes, that's how I try to live my life everyday.  I want people to see God in me.  There is an old saying that "you may be the only Bible someone ever reads."  I want to them to be able to read me loud and clear!  Help me Lord to shine my light so that others see You in me!

Well, I just got home from teaching one of my evening classes.  On the way home, I noticed a crescent moon in the sky.  Seeing the moon, no matter what stage it's at, always reminds me of a poem my Mamma taught me when I was three years old.  I've never heard anyone else repeat it.  I don't know where she learned it from.  So, here goes ...

The man in the moon as he sailed the skies
   was a very remarkable skipper.
But he made a mistake when he tried to take
   a drink of milk from the dipper.
He dipped right in to the Milky Way,
And slowly and carefully, he filled it.
The big bear growled!
The little bear howled!
And scared him so he spilled it!

I used to say that to Brandon when he was little and now to my grandkids.  They love it because I get a deep growly voice for the big bear and a high squeaky voice for the little bear.  Great fun!

Mamma taught me many, many rhymes when I was little.  I think I was a child prodigy or something.  I can still remember so many of them!  We used to have contests at work to see who knew the most; I always won! 

Okay, guess that's enough for tonight.  Nighty-night!  Don't let the bedbugs bite!

Til we meet again,
