Is there anything cuter than kids with their laps full of puppies? This is a picture from reading friend, Sherri. When she got my newsletter several days ago, the picture of my sisters holding kittens made her remember a picture of her and her sister with a kitten. (posted on the left here) They must have had one sweet kitten …
Birthdays Come in All Sizes with Smiles
It’s still my birthday month, so I’m still celebrating birthdays. But now I’m branching out to invite others in to celebrate too. The beautiful lady above is someone I went to church with for many years. Loretta lived a good life and was blessed with many years. She lacked only a few months making it to 100 when she …
Happy Birthday to Me
Do you love having birthdays? I do. One a year is enough since they add up pretty quickly even at that one a year rate. 🙂 But birthdays are to enjoy even as the numbers go up. The thing to do is have them, enjoy them, forget about counting them. Once you hit your twenties, the anticipated ages have all …
Frankie & Marley Caption Fun
“Did you know that there are over 300 words for love in canine?” – Gabriel Zevin I know. I’m late. It is Thursday, not Wednesday when I usually post. But we had company last night and had to get a new television set up since the one we had just blew up a couple of days ago. Now, while I …
A Grandparents Day Picture for Your Caption

The Wonder of Butterflies – 1st Sunday Devotional
Happiness is a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but which if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you. (Nathaniel Hawthorne) Have you ever chased a butterfly? Without a butterfly net? Usually just as you almost have it, the butterfly flits away to a new spot where it will wave its wings at you. It’s …
Let’s Have Fun with a Caption Game
“To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.” — Elliott Erwitt Those of you who hang out with me here on my blog and on my Facebook page know how …
Letting the Cat Out of the Bag
Have you let the cat out of the bag or bought a pig in a poke? Is it raining cats and dogs at your house? No, I don’t have any big news or secrets to tell, but sometimes it’s fun to think about why we say the things we do. Especially when it comes to idioms. What is an idiom? …
Welcome Marley
“I’m late! I’m late! For a very important date! No time to say hello, goodbye! I’m late! I’m late! I’m late!” (The White Rabbit in Alice in the Wonderland) Yes, I am late with this post – again. I was late last week too. The White Rabbit’s lament runs through my head whenever I think about being late and sometimes I sing …
