Happy 11th Birthday Hannah Sue Reed

Here you are with your Grandma Reed in 2006. She loved it when you came to visit her!

Here you are with your Grandpa Reed just a few weeks ago!

I hope you have a very special birthday, try not to grow up too fast, it is making the rest of us get old! Love you lots from you Auntie Sue Sue

The Older I Get.....

The Older I Get....
The simpler my holiday preparations become....
the closer I feel to old friends as I write my Christmas Cards....
the more I cherish the older ornaments....
the more fondly I remember Christmases past...
the longer I hold on to a holiday hug....
the more I realize that Christmas is a matter of the heart...
the tighter my throat gets when I sing "Silent Night"....
the more I enjoy giving instead of receiving....
the more I try to see Christmas through the eyes of a child....
the longer I sit at night in the glow of the Christmas tree....
The more wondrously beautiful the Christmas story is...
the deeper my awe at God's infinite love....
the More I Love Christmas!
~this was in a Christmas card I received today and it is just how I feel so I wanted to share it with you.......susan

Jesus~Ever Near, Forever Glorious


Jesus, ever near me, ever looking on; seeing my intentions before He beholds my failures; knowing my desires before He sees my faults; cheering me to endeavor greater things, and yet accepting the least; inviting my poor service, and yet, above all, content with my poorer love. The humblest and the simplest, the weakest and the most encumbered, may love Him not less than the busiest and strongest, the most gifted and laborious. If our heart be clear before Him; if He be to our chief and sovereign choice, dear above all, and beyond all desired; then all else matters little. That which concerns us He will perfect in stillness and in power. –H.E. Manning
