Happy Independence Day!
Enjoyed: Watching fireworks with Michael, Andrew, neighbors and old church friends Thursday night
Started: painting our shutters last night
Watched: the Argentinian god humiliated as his team was soundly defeated by Germany in the World Cup yesterday
Talked: to my four-year-old neighbor when he dropped by for a visit last evening
Decided: to start reading and posting notes on Matthew again (join me)
Reflected: upon "to whom much is given of him much will be required" as it relates to my blessed life in the United States
Reminded: by a friend's Facebook note that not all people in the world go to bed safe and full
Challenged: by a local pastor to not idolize America and remember God (not "God and country") comes first
Grieved: that a friend lost her father on the morning of her birthday
Hugged: my little bug after missing him so much while he was at camp
Enjoyed: the crepe myrtles in full blossom around the area now -- God's creation is simply awesome!

But you said old, so he is 4 years old ? if he 's , then that's so cute :)
(Reminded: by a friend's Facebook note that not all people in the world go to bed safe and full) , now that's need a complete post, doesn't it? it so sad how the world is :(

He likes to come over and visit and he likes for us to go to his house. We were there last night celebrating the holiday. :)
You write good posts making people aware of hunger in the world. I admire you for those thought-provoking posts.
Yeah, I was so sad for Colleen. Her birthday was June 30 and we were all wishing her a Happy Birthday on Facebook and then later she posted that her father was found dead that morning. Heartbreaking! :(
Thanks for your comment!
Lat, how fun! Youth Day, huh? Is that to celebrate the young people in your country? I am not sure where you live. Do you have school year-round? Here most students are out for the summer. I hope your children enjoyed their day off school! :)
