Two other boys not in picture. A happy family for sure. 9-18-2019 Perryton, TX
These little guys are in boy heaven today. They drove this little new, red, Goff cart to the practice field to watch the ranger football boys work out for the next game. A dad sat in the passengers seat for good reasons. How it thrills my heart to see happy children, There are so many who do not share in happiness, and that breaks my heart. I had to be reminded when my husband, and I had a lake home near Sanford, Texas. We kept our little four year old grandson with us a lot while his parents worked. We had a Goff cart that we drove around the lake in. Our little grandson had a little electric car that he drove beside us in. Once he got behind, and completely stopped. Grandpa jumps off the Goff cart and goes back to see what was wrong. Just as grandpa got nearly to the little car our little grandson pushed the pedal and takes off like a streak of lightening. Grandpa felt like a fool that his four year old grandson had pulled the wool over his eyes, but he was laughing his head off. This is the kind of love that only God can give, and only God can take away, but only temporarily. Grandpa is in heaven, and he looks down on that little four year old grandson who has turned 25 now, and still smiles at the intelligent jobs he has mastered. The little, would be, car-jacker, has been without his grandpa for nearly seven years now, but he will never forget him. God bless all the little children whether they have a loving family, or have a selfish family who didn't want them.
My lunch time was spent with good company today. Enjoyed some fun, and a good meal. The big family of senior citizens we are never fail to be thankful for the nice, large, building with all the good help that make it absolutely delightful. If one takes their troubles there, they sure don't take them back home with them. Can you find a place any more priceless than that? We do lose a member from time to time, but God always gives us peace over it. We never forget the memories. At the end of every meal we hear that someone is going on an exciting trip of some kind. It makes for an anxious wait to hear from them at the next luncheon or maybe two. or three. We hear the positive, and the negative side of every place the seniors choose to go. It just creates a diversity of good fellowship, and helps us get out of out own little box. Hopefully we can forget our own worries, and dream for awhile. It seems like everyone is always ready to come back to the next luncheon. Then there's always that thought that we may miss something. For instance I learned today that one of my close friends has a new boyfriend. She didn't tell me. I learned it at the Center before she got there. She still didn't mention it, but I'm tickled pink for her. May she be blessed with this new relationship.
God Bless
