A new little prince

A new little prince is here, and we are full of joy and gratitude. Congratulations to his wonderful parents and little/big sister!

Thank You Note

As we are about to experience a changing of the guard, I wrote a note to President Obama.

I wrote to thank him for his wonderful example of integrity, dignity, respect, grace under pressure, and as a faithful husband and father.    - - -     I appreciate Mrs. Obama's emphasis on improving health and fitness, also. So needed today.

Here's a small, random quote:
" All of us, we make mistakes. At times, we are lost. And as we get older, we learn we don't always have control of things - not even a president does. But we do have control over how we respond to the world. We do have control over how we treat one another."              President Obama

"I see you, and you see me"

1 - 1- 1017.  A brand new year. Wishing you Health and Happiness!

Without even looking, I think I may have found my theme for the new year. It's a little song with a really pretty melody and message, for both at home and for in the world. I heard it today for the first time, in Primary music time, and it moved me to tears.       (by Patricia Graham,  Children's Songbook p. 263)

I see you, and you see me. 

We are as diff'rent as the sun and the sea.

I see you, and you see me,

And that is how it is supposed to be.

I help you, and you help me.
We learn from problems, and we're starting to see.
I help you, and you help me,
And that's the way that it's supposed to be.

I love you, and you love me.
We reach together for the best we can be.
I love you, and you love me,
And that's the way it is supposed to be.
