The Meyerson's Story in Phoenix, Arizona

“The basic purpose of art is not to teach, but to show- to hold up to a man a concretized image of his nature and his place in the universe.”

— Ayn Rand

The McAfee's Story in Royce City, Texas

“The things that Jesus did were of the most menial and commonplace order, and this is an indication that it takes all God’s power in me to do the most commonplace things in His way. Can I use a towel as He did? Towels and dishes and sandals, all the ordinary sordid things of our lives, reveal more quickly than anything what we are made of. It takes God Almighty Incarnate in us to do the meanest duty as it ought to be done.”

— Oswald Chambers

the story of ruby's ninth birthday

Yesterday I shared pictures from my boys' birthdays last year so I guess I'd better not leave out Ruby.  Sadly, she had a fever on her birthday and spent most of the day laying down.  When Ruby was little I used to joke that her brain was made of cotton candy. She has a very sweet outlook on life, that I hope she never loses!  

The Story of Cogan's Eleventh Birthday

Cogan's last birthday was a year ago this month as well. The boys had a joint party, so Cogan's actual birthday was pretty laid back.  He's the most responsible one in our family, we'd be lost without him... literally... he's so good with maps!
