a delightful treat.................

today is a day we celebrate freedom. i am so thankful for friends who listen and respond with a heart full of love. my last blog was a little down, but i am thankful for friends who give encouraging words. wise words. words that speak true to my heart. so to all of you friends who read my blog and offer encouraging words THANKS. may you find your days filled with joy unspeakable and full of laughter.

on this independence day, i am thankful for my daughters and family. we went to comanche for hannah's softball tournament. we didn't win, but it was a great day with the family. i am proud of hannah. she plays with all of her heart. and gives it her best. today God blessed me with a visit with a dear old friend. we used to teach together and now she teaches in ballinger. we visited during all of the games. her daughter was asked to be on our team as a fill in.

then after we finished one of hannah's friends parents asked us to their ranch so the girls could ride horses. hannah and bekah and nicole rode horses for about half an hour. they had the best time. they were almost squealing.

so thank you God for this delightful independence day. thank you for all of the freedoms we share.
