A gentle word, a kind look, a good-natured smile can work wonders and accomplish miracles.
Taking joy in living is a woman's best cosmetic.
Beauty is how you feel inside, and it reflects in your eyes. It is not something physical.
If you don't think every day is a good day, just try missing one.
What is your passion? What do you love to do? Perhaps you like to paint or draw. Maybe singing lifts your heart to the Lord like nothing else. It isn't an accident that you feel the most alive whatever your passion may be. You are the only one with your unique ablilities and gifts-God created you that way! You are the only one who can do what you do; and if you don't use your talent, no one else can do it for you![/color]
No matter how ugly your life feels today, remember that God is in the business of making all things new and beautiful.
ABOUT ME
I have been married 45 years.
We have 2 married children. A girl and a boy.
As you can tell, I was married at a very young age and also had my kids very young. The marriage has been a very rocky one but I wouldn't trade it. It has made me stronger in my walk with the Lord.
Kim has 3 grown girls, ages 26, 23 and 20.
Craig is married and has an adorable red headed son, age 11 and a brown eyed, smart as a whip, 7 year old daughter.
I love the Lord and belong to a wonderful Baptist church. I teach an adult women's Sunday School class.
My husband and I both grew up in MN. He has a mother and 9 brothers and sisters there. I also have a mother, a brother and a sister there. We try to visit as often as we can.
We now live in WA state near the southern border. We are about 40 miles from Portland, OR. We are also about 35 miles from Mt. St. Helens.
Dress up!! The best way to dress up is to put on a smile. A smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks. Shut up! Say nice things and learn to listen. God gave us two ears and one mouth, so He must have meant for us to do twice as much listening as talking.
