Once upon a time . . .


























Flashback: May 24, 1982

A child is born. A beautiful little, bald-headed girl, to be exact. Her name had already been chosen. She would be called Meggan Marie Mc****** -- Meggan was chosen to honor her Irish heritage; Marie was selected to honor her Grandmother and Great Grandmother; Mc****** -- her given name. She arrived late on a Monday afternoon, to tears of joy from both her Mother and Father. Little did they know that the joy they felt at the time of her birth would carry forward for many years to come.

This child was born with a tender heart and gentle spirit. A lover of animals, she would be the caregiver of cats, dogs, a rabbit, hamsters, hermit crabs, fish, injured birds and she had a deep affection for seals.

This child was/is the same with people. She loves deeply, cares genuinely, feels keenly and gives freely.

Now a grown woman with a family of her own, she provides them with nuturing, caring, and unconditional love.

I am very proud and honored to call this young woman my daughter, my best friend. God truly blessed me with so much more than I deserved in granting me the care and raising of this child.

Happy birthday, Meggan. I pray that God blesses you with many, many more.

I love you,
Mom

    How absolutely lovely. What a wonderful tribute to your beautiful daughter.Anyone who loves and cares for all types of animals is alright in my book. Her sweet little children are very lucky to have a role model like her for a Mommy.
    HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEGGAN! from your Mom's friend Jo

"Something of Historic Proportion is Happening"

"Something of Historic Proportion is Happening" by Pam Geller This takes a couple minutes to read -- but it will be the most important couple minutes you can imagine. No matter what your political position, this is information you NEED to know. This was not written by some political hack -- check out her credentials at the end of the article. ___________________________________ "Something of Historic Proportion is Happening" I am a student of history. Professionally. I have written 15 books in six languages, and have studied it all my life. I think there is something monumentally large afoot, and I do not believe it is just a banking crisis, or a mortgage crisis, or a credit crisis. Yes, these exist but they are merely single facets on a very large gemstone that is only now coming into a sharper focus. Something of historic proportions is happening. I can sense it because I know how it feels, smells, what it looks like, and how people react to ...

Needing more prayers

My beautiful niece was in a car accident last night along with her boyfriend. Both were badly hurt and are in need of your prayers. I just talked with Alonna. They are getting ready to take her into surgery to repair the damage done to her face. One side was pretty messed up. Sounds like she's in for some extensive surgery. I didn't ask her how her boyfriend is doing, but it sounds like he got hurt even worse than did she but is expected to be okay. Alonna is my baby brother's only child. Please pray for a speedy recovery for both kids. I'll let you know how they progress. Thank you so much.
