Pay it forward from Denise and a Potato of the Month from my BILove

Oh Denise this is just too adorable!

What a sweet sweet surprise!

Look at the little pillow it has my name on it. Now I can almost count the things in my life that actually have MY name on them.

Garden gloves and a sheer that I actually really needed for mine got rusted a bit.

Gloves are a good reminder for I do tend to get my hands chapped a bit in the garden.

Cute little calendar date book too.

Thank you thank you

She is so cute!

I just love the bag!

So me, I should take a picture of the front walk way it is full of Poppies blooming bright orange.

The iris are in full glory too.

Imagine to my suprise a box of organic potato.

A box a month!

Wonderful variety.

A mistery to me but then my darling said it was from my dear brother in law.

I can save one of each to get them to spout perhaps do a crop out in the garden this year.

Now If your out there J.

Thank you thank you

this is just too cool.

What a nice surprise.

Something to look forward too all year long.

This will be great fun.

It is a just because looks like for except for the anniversary no holiday is here .

By Maya Angelou

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
Return with Honor
The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
"HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
“Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
"O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
"No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"
