Her nickname growing up was “TINY” –

given to her by her father!

Today – Ella is almost 5’10 ” tall –

and will compete for her senior year in college-

On the pitch in soccer.

She has started every game as a Freshman and Sophomore –

As a Junior,

she battled through a leg injury –

As the coaches monitored her game-by-game –

to not cause the injury to keep her from playing at all!

She was made captain in her Sophomore year –

as she battled her sister Maddy –

In games with the University of Lynchburg!

This year she hopes to recover enough –

to finish her college career!

She will graduate with two degrees –

and will be a physical teacher to young elementary students!

“TINY” has blossomed –

and my little one – well –

I will always have a place in my heart for her!

LIFE –

As we travel through LIFE –

MEMORIES are Made to be cherished!

In today’s World –

so many negative views –

I honestly wonder where –

COMMON SENSE has gone.

So many nasty thoughts –

Where does this come from –

a nation divided – a country amiss –

Name-calling – brother vs brother –

and sister vs sister –

Families torn apart.

Where has GRACE gone?

Today – I pray that this heals –

That sense will make sense.

Democracy must not die –

but be the shining light in the darkness.

I hope that this blog helps in that aspect –

Sharing GRACE through peaceful words.

LOVE makes the World go round!

LOVE is the only thing some people-

have to hold onto.

LOVE is here and there –

LOVE is in the air.

My hope is that LOVE shines bright enough-

to dim the darkness of the land.

YES – LOVE DOES MAKE THE WORLD GO ROUND – LETS SHOW IT!
