Today I am thankful for having the privilege and opportunity to care for Bean.


Thank you Lord for this child.  Please watch over her, keep her safe and sweet and let her always know that the most important thing in her life is that she is Your child.

Today I am thankful for prayer.

I like starting my day in prayer.  It is usually short, most often "thank you" but it sets my focus for the day.  Thank you Lord for the opportunity to pray both privately and publicly.  Thank you for listening to me and thank you for being my Father.

Today I am thankful for Claritin.


The cedar is here folks -- take your meds.

Today I am thankful for sunshine and warm temperatures!

Yes, I know it is the middle of winter but this is Texas after all and we do have radical weather changes and apparently we are having one of those today! Thank you Lord for sunshine following the rain. Thank you for the warmth on our faces.  Help us to use this good weather to your glory.

Today I am thankful for the rain and for me getting to my destination safely.



We really need the rain.  We had ice which wreaked havoc on our lives for a week and totally tore up the streets and, while I am sure it was beneficial in some way, I am glad it is gone.  However, for the last two days we have had rain.  Plain ol' rain and warmer temps so it is good for the yards and the plants.  I can hardly wait for spring to see all the plants come alive.  Hopefully no more ice!

Today I am thankful for a very good day.


There isn't much to say about it, nothing spectacular happened, it was just a good day and for that I give thanks.

Today I am thankful for my clergy.

I attend St. John's Anglican Church in Fort Worth and I have to say that I am extremely blessed by wonderful clergy.  Father David Klein, Father Bill Estes, Fr. Tom Powell and Richard Moseley are the most caring, genuine folks I have ever known as are their wives, I might add.  Last evening we had the pleasure of running into this group (sans Fr. Powell) at a local restaurant.  The celebration of Richard passing his canonical exams was ensuing and the joy radiating from Richard and the rest of the group was palpable.  It was a wonderful thing to happen upon them serendipitously and share in that joy.  Thank you Lord for the blessing of good, caring clergy.  Please bless and keep them.
