Show and Tell Saturdays!!

O.k. I haven't ever done a day theme in blog world but today I am! The Ties that Bind Us got it from Homesteaders Heart. Anyways, it is show and tell your favorite cup/mug, treasured ones or just ones you use every day. The big, jumbo I LOVE YOU mug is one I use just about every day with as much coffee as I can get in it. It even has a chip on the top side but I love the way it holds ALOT and my hand fits in the handle, perfecty!!! The polka dot one says ITS A BOY. My old friend gave this to me after my baby was born. My little one puts hot cocoa in it. I just love it. The middle mug I do not use very much but I keep it at the front in the cabinet, it makes me smile. It says, my husband ran away with the maid and I miss her. Gee, I don't have a maid but I would MISS her, I just know it!! Join the Show and Tell Saturday. You know you like show and tells!!!!!

Thanks for joining in. It's fun.
Blessings to you.

IF by Rudyard Kipling

If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, or, being lied about, don't deal in lies, or being hated don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise; If you can dream - and not make dreams your master; If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim, If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster and treat those two impostors just the same; If you bear to hear the truth you've spoken twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, and stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools; If you can make one heap of all your winnings and risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, and lose, and start again at your beginnings, and never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew to serve your turn long after they are gone, and so hold on when there is nothing in you except the Will which says to them; "Hold on!" If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch, If either foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the earth and everything that's in it, and which is more, you'll be a man, my son!

our last christmas, little did we know!! we miss you-you are always in our thoughts. We sold his house, it was as if we had to say goodbye again. Nothing but fond memories. Movie night, hide and go seek, fishing, the beach, pool table, weight room, ice cream, bagels, peach diet iced tea, laughing...simply you. Miss you more than you will ever know. It feels as if it was just yesterday, thank God you are "free". "With your final heartbeat, kiss the world goodbye, go in peace and laugh on Glory's side. And fly to Jesus, fly to Jesus, fly to Jesus and LIVE....." .
