A big hello from the road, friends! I’m enjoying a much needed catch-up visit with my daughter’s family in Houston, so I’ll be brief because there are grand boys to snuggle. And yes, they’re getting a big old for snuggling, but as of now, they still indulge this Keggie! I snagged the following pics from his mother’s recap of their recent family vacation. (Including them here just so long time readers can see how much they’ve grown!) The boys loved seeing the Grand Canyon. 

That said, I can’t leave y’all without some inspirational thoughts, compliments of Shiloh…

Someone in this pic had a big old time rolling in the mud this weekend. See the next pic for a clue. Keep reading for a story.


Although it took a while (Shiloh is a big boy!) I thoroughly enjoyed grooming him while he demolished his grain at last night’s feeding. It was my pleasure. It’s what I do.

Sweet believer, did you know Jesus loves to clean us up, too? It’s true!

We may be headed to heaven but as long as our feet walk this dusty planet, our souls will get soiled along the way.

Our challenge is in learning to keep returning to The Bread of Life for real food. By doing so we allow Jesus to wash us over and again in His Word. It’s His pleasure. It’s what He does!

Hit reply and drop me a line if you’d like. I enjoy hearing from you.

Hugs,
Shellie
