Silent Sermon Sunday

Divine Source who walks with us each day, 
Walk with our son as he, once again, does a warrior's work
In the forbidding, harsh places that call for our nation's children
to do what must be done.
Let him feel your presence in his days.
Keep him aware, open, and attentive.
Let his time in the austere parts of our world
work to deepen his spirit and expand his humanity.
And, help us live as fearlessly while we wait for his return.
~ Amen

If You Just Smile

It's been a long while since I've shared an image of my beloved Livy...so here she is looking all grown up.  She'll be four in a couple of months.  FOUR!  How does the time seep by and go so fast?!

One small toy at a time.  One Barbie outfit missing shoes.  One stuffed animal loved until the fur is off.  One princess costume worn until the sequins are all gone. 

One accomplishment at a time.  Going to 'school' for the first time.  Learning to say the Pledge of "Alleebance" all on your own with just the smallest bit of coaching.  One hug of your baby sister, Ava.  One more stern warning to your boxer, Georgie, "NO, Georgie!"

And, a visit to the hair salon with Mommy.  Where you get treated like the rock star that you are!  As Laura said in her message to me, "...she just looks so grown up and pretty in this picture that I had to share."  You're right Lar, she does.  And I am so tickled that you thought of me and sent it! 

It's hard not being close by to see these small changes and accomplishments.  I'll always wish we lived closer.  One day, if I keep smiling....I'm sure it will happen.

Didn't she just make your day a wee bit brighter when you saw her?  I'm smiling now while I write this.  I hope your smile carries you through your day.

Silent Sermon Sunday


When we turn inward and spend time in the Sacred Silence,
we are reminded that we are never alone.
Smile, breathe, you are in good company.

Namaste' Till Next Time,
