What A Perspective!

So not too long before our Bishop Reunion I got a request. This was a very special request from a young girl. A girl who was about to turn the big Birthday of 10. Our Sunday afternoons at Grandma’s, her Great-Grandma’s has been quite a journey for us. Watching her grow up to this age…

A Prayer …Peace

My Heavenly Gracious Father, I Thank You for those you have put into my family! Looking over the photos of my Bishop family has been a wonderful time consuming labor of love. It’s funny how I can see now as an adult the various family members and how they look so similar to each other…

Homecoming Season

Two weeks of Church Homecomings. It’s a lot of preparation. Last week was my parents church and yesterday was my church at Pleasantville. Both were wonderful days. We celebrated 205 years yesterday at the Pleasantville Community Church. They split from the Methodist Church due to the growing malfeasance by the Global and domestic church entity.…

In The Zone

Back in the month of May I was sweetly asked to work on a project for Grandma. Aunt Martha knows how I like to work with my hands, but more importantly I have a Cri-Cut cutter and sometimes a creative nature to work with my various art skills and tools. It was an honor and…

Time For the Dentist Again!

A few weeks ago I mentioned my worst encounter with having to go to the dentist. Today was the exact opposite. Although, I didn’t have my appointment marked into my phone. Sometimes I take photos of my appointment card, but I missed doing that this last time. Usually Ms. Brittany calls me a week before…

Zoo

For a couple of weeks a rumor had been weaving through our family of going to the Zoo. Then very abruptly the rumor mill was closed down. It was absolutely not happening. Then all of a sudden this past Friday it was revived, but still I had no specifics as to anything really pertaining to…

Saying Goodbye For Now

This morning I have to admit I was a bit irritated. I got up early and was ready to walk by 7 am. Mom had taken off with my brother to get milk so I got a little flustered by this when we have been trying to get up early to walk and today was…

Timing, God’s Timing!

My uncle lost his drivers license on Friday. After all chaos is a perfect word for the past weekend and what we have endured on some level. Yet he didn’t realize it until today. Last Friday was a busy day because he also forgot his phone a couple of times that day. One time was…

Tuesday: 2nd Appointment… Another Memory

This appointment was made and it was said my uncle could get in within a week. That was back in early to mid April. There were no cancellations to be switched in to get him in early at all. It had been way over a month of waiting for this appointment. The night before we…

Summer Plans

This summer will be a little different for me. I am looking forward to the warm weather and my niece will be out of school. Something else will be filling my time though, family and kids. I will be getting to watch some little cousins for my cousins. It will be fun and a change…
