This picture is my bad side!

Come on I know this like your second picture with your new digital camera,
 but really I didn't even get to pose.
 My first photo on a Blog and You didn't even say (cheese)

Max is adjusting to his new home, as we are also adjusting to a little dog who stays

really close by.

Dear little Max is no longer living, he belonged to my parents.
First my Mother passed away, then my Father.
So I inherited this little guy.

It was so sad because he became very sick and he died also!
I wonder if it was because he missed his master too much?

I looked at this post and almost deleted it and I decided heck this post,
is history now!

Blogging has been a very interesting journey for me!
If you're reading this post, it is one from the archives!

Blessings,

Cat and Max...

Here is the one who sleeps all day and plays all night!
Cats are really nocturnal...

Her name is Jasmine
 And my sweet Hubby got her for me on Valentines Day.

She is about 5 years old, and loves to eat and sleep.

Now can you see that little dog down on the floor?

His name is Max.

Now that little guy is a dog that belonged to my Mother and Father.

My mother passed away about 6 years ago, she went to be with the Lord
 now Max became my Dad's dog.

Now, this is what happened:
 My Dad arrived on Sunday night and we had only 3 days together and he passed away.
 I truly believed he knew he was dying,
 and he made the long travel by car so he could get his little guy safely to the family.
 Now Max belongs to me.

Now Jasmine is still wondering will this little doggie ever go home?
 I got news for you (cat)

I am Home!

Max did pass away shortly after my Father died;
And now Jasmine is 10 years old.

One thing I can say about having a house cat is this;
We do not ever have mice in the house;
As she takes her job very seriously!

Blessings, Roxy

Noah My Grandson...

Here is one of my most treasured gifts from the Lord,

 Noah walked with God, Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord Genesis 6:8-9.

 Prophesy, speak words of life and health over your children.

 All of my Grandchildren, will walk in their inheritance, because

  I will call those things into being and they shall come to pass.

 I have the privilege and honor to plant seeds in all of my grandchild's life.

 I plant them when I speak to them and about them to others.

Your words that these little ones hear will produce the fruit of what is heard by their own ears.

 The word they hear will either produce 
Faith and Encouragement,

 Joy and Strength,
 Righteousness and Truth,
 ~Which produce Life~

Remember, even our little lambs given to us from the Father will become
 What you say over them. 
 So lets start being mindful of what you say and speak into their lives.

Training Hint:

 Through my years of being with the little ones,

 I have found that if I will just speak to them in a tone of a kind voice, yet in a suggestive (great idea) mode their little eyes look up to say hey, (great idea).

 Really, The all in control mode is not always the best approach for all kids. Like Noah!

 He will remind you, Be Nice Omma, or Papa.

My New And Improved Living Room...

Voila

After almost two weeks of painting and new wood floors, voila our new living room!

It was really worth all the work.
 Our son did all the wood floors and most everything else.

 My Hubby and I helped with the painting and painting and painting.

All good things take time and energy.

Which reminds me, I finally feel rested and can fully enjoy it!

I love new and improved most the time,
 Yet other times I want to say hey, what's wrong with the way things use to be?

Sometimes the things that our most familiar to us, help us to feel safe and a sense of home.

But I can truly say that the feeling I get when I see the results is (change can be good).

The Lord spoke a word to me in the beginning of this new year and it was "extravagant".

He truly wants to bless and prosper His children. He wants to give you the desires of your heart.
 I had been praying for almost a year about doing a wood floor and updating the colors.

He is a good God and He wants to give you good gifts.

"Home is where Your heart is"

After all, the word tells us to Be Home Makers or keepers of the home.

So making them cozy and comfy and beautiful is biblical.
