i sat at my computer last night and struggled
to come up with anything to post today
it just wasn't happening
UNTIL
i woke up this morning
i have so much to be thankful for
family, friends, my pets, and my health
i love this picture of lily bug
i've always thought it looks like she is praying
this is cowboys grandmother, Elma
this is grandma's bible
you can see is is very worn with love
there is no date in this biblegrandma has a date of 1949 written in it
and a note on the next page that
this bible is about 50 years old
making it at least 100 years old today
AMAZING!
as i glance through the pages i discovered thereare some verses circled
these are listed above on the
front page
there are some beautiful pages 
grandma always tucked things awaythese dried flowers are still in the bible
she loved her flowers and had a
beautiful yard
As I post today, I am thinking of others
and their difficulties they are going through
I am asking you to pray for these families
as they are facing many heartbreaking issues
in their lives right now
you can go to their web sights
Praying for April Rose

Praying for Stellan
ISAIAH 41:10
Fear thou not; for I am with thee:
be not dismayed; for I am thy God:
I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help
thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the
right hand of my righteousness.

That is so cool that you still have Grandma's Bible with all her treasures still tucked away inside of it!
Wow, great post! We do all have so much to be thankful for, even if at times it seems like we don't. That is really neat to have your Grandma's bible with all those neat things in it. I love the pics!

Love the picture of Lilly!
It is so neat to have something from the family for that long and will remain even longer!
That bible is really grand...I'm going to have to take a closer look at it, it's been years. How amazing it's in the family. A true treasure!
That is a true family treasure. I love the dried flowers....
