Somebody looks like the Michelin Man!


You put on Enoch's big coat and voila, my Michelin man! You are so cute in your costume. I do hope that we can remember that for a Halloween idea. The great ideas always come in a time away from the event. We took the photo and you looked just like the Michelin Man. I love you.

Benjamin Banneker


Was the first African American man to write an Almanac. He was educated by Quakers and continued to improve his mind, although it was against the law for an African American man to do so.
He worked day and night to improve his mind and studied the stars and math and sciences so that when it was time to put together the city of Washington DC, he was qualified to be on the board for the planning of the city.
His mind was so acute that after the designer left them without plans, at the last minute; Benjamin had memorized the plan and was able to recreate it, so that the city planners didn't have to begin, again; from the start.

Isn't God Good?


"Amen!"

Do you remember when we sat outside and watched the lightning on the porch in front of the house? I am afraid of the lightning, you said snuggling with me. I said to you that the lightning glorifies our God and we needn't be afraid, just careful. The lightning shines the question, Isn't God Good? and the thunder responds a resounding AMEN!
We are among the creation that glorify God and enjoy Him forever.
What a beautiful dance that the lightning and the elements enjoy in thanksgiving and praise to our creator. We enjoy more of the blessings and dance and glorify Him much less. He is worthy alone of all of that Glory.

Now, you are too big to discuss those little things as we did. You are concerned about the three R's and the friends and busyness. Never forget the song of the lightning and the resounding response. Great is the Lord and greatly, to be praised.
