I remember falling out of bed and hitting hard linoleum floor once ... broke a baby tooth doing that. :) Shelli Littletonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00136640834514348086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-631802000219417479.post-59163003493357390662016-01-08T18:30:19.648-08:002016-01-08T18:30:19.648-08:00Oh, Shelli, I am so honoured...you brought needed ...Oh, Shelli, I am so honoured...you brought needed light to a difficult day. Thank you so much.<br /><br />My first attempt at spelling 'difficult' was 'dafficult'...it did have some daffy qualities, including a piece of firewood that declined to be brought inside, snagged on the door, and snapped back into my nose. But the nose has been broken so many times...it didn't make a difference!Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13230537202427640540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-631802000219417479.post-73375057363993486452016-01-08T16:17:35.115-08:002016-01-08T16:17:35.115-08:00Andrew ... thank you.

I'm so proud of you. I'm so proud of the way God is using you, through all that you are enduring daily. He's using you to build marriages, to salvage marriages, to help caregivers, to help the terminally ill. You are that five star. And I'm blessed to know you.Shelli Littletonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00136640834514348086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-631802000219417479.post-59510155379353638122016-01-08T09:01:55.179-08:002016-01-08T09:01:55.179-08:00Love the words, and the pictures are so charming! ...Love the words, and the pictures are so charming!

I want to camp out in these words: "Be the one your Heavenly Father just can't put down. Be the one wrapped around His tiniest finger. Be the one that makes His chest puff with heavenly pride.

And I thought--I want to love God like that. "Taste and see that the Lord is good" ... and when you do, you can't be satisfied with anything less. :)Shelli Littletonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00136640834514348086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-631802000219417479.post-51711445504734923652016-01-05T11:09:15.032-08:002016-01-05T11:09:15.032-08:00I never thought much about achieving five stars in...I never thought much about achieving five stars in anything until I applied that to my walk with God. Would I really be satisfied with a three star effort? A clearer perspective of myself left me wanting and needing more than a half hearted relationship with my Lord. genehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16341369225724802103noreply@blogger.com
