I live in a small town in the far northeastern corner of Texas, almost Oklahoma - could be Arkansas in less than an hour... then again, the same could be said about La.  I was raised in a town outside of Dallas Fort Worth, back when they had small towns around them.  My dad retired and moved off up here and I followed.  I have three children and they gave me seven grandchildren, four boys and three girls.  I love God, my family and unfortunately animals.  I am the one that strays find, and the wounded and the ones no ones else could ever love.  I love the lake, seeing the sun rise and go down, walks on the beach ( although there is not any around here) lol; seeing smiles on childrens faces, prayers on their parents lips every day, hugs, flowers and gardening, horses, angels of all kinds (especially watching over us) laughter of any kind, holding hands and being held, humming birds and sunshine, computers and lemonade.  I guess I am a mixture of yesterday and today but still believes that God comes first and family follows and close second and fun is right behind.  I hope you all have His blessing and your family has love, laughter and fun in your home.
