Weekly Photo Challenge: Abandoned It was the first day of school and this little angel's mom couldn't stay because she had to rush off to work. The look on her face captured my heart and I was lucky enough to have the camera on my phone ready to snap this picture. I don't know what … Continue reading First Day

Weekly Photo Challenge Today: Window Ice on Glass: Our window froze up quite nicely during the sub-zero temps over the last week or so. This was the result. Our cats were frustrated because the view of the bird feeders was blocked!
Joy, Joy, Joy, Joy, Down In My Heart
What a fun song, eliciting smiles and memories of childhood songs from Sunday school or church-sponsored summer camps. The Weekly Photo Challenge: JOY, put this song in my head and it's been there since last Friday (when the challenge was posted). It also made this nice picture posted by Stephanie Ackerman Designs even more meaningful … Continue reading Joy, Joy, Joy, Joy, Down In My Heart
Judy, Judy, Judy (Weekly Photo Challenge: Joy)

We accompanied each other to … Continue reading Judy, Judy, Judy (Weekly Photo Challenge: Joy)

Last year, my husband and I wanted to do something for the Holiday Drive at Children's Friend (in Providence), but we weren't in a … Continue reading A Neighborhood Diaper Drive

I love these Weekly Photo Challenges, it gives me an easy way to "show" you what I'm thankful for. I think I may have missed the deadline for the one about Thanksgiving, of course.
