7th Generation Texan

I wanted to say hi and to invite you to link up one of your posts on a networking meme. I've received a few requests to open up “Pay It Forward” to posts from a bloggers own blog and I thought I'd give it a try. Although the original idea was to share what you've seen elsewhere on the internet, I recognize that each time we post something on our own blogs we are also sharing Good News, great tips, wonderful prayers, fabulous photos, scrumptious recipes, hilarious humor, unbelievable books, stories of goodwill, or good things that have knocked our socks off. I hope you’ll post something from your blog. It’s fun to get to know the bloggers out there.

I'll leave the March linky open until March 14th. (Entered links will appear in two posts.) I can't wait to see what gets posted! Enjoy your blogging experience…

Blessings!

Thanks for the prayers Helen. That means a lot.

Helen, thanks for stopping by.

That's a good idea! I don't know why I didn't think of that - we've painted a flower pot before. Party activity and thank you gift all in one!

Visiting from Jen's blog . . . Happy First 7 Quick Takes!

Since your Princess enjoyed herb/flower planting so much, maybe you could decorate pots with her friends and give each a flower to plant and take home?

Same here. You have to give it a try!

Thanks for the prayers! Yes, I am discovering what it means to be a part of the sandwich generation. I'll have to post soon with an update, but we had prayers answered for a (relatively) happy Christmas - even if from a hospital.

Diana, I am SO sorry to hear that! Prayers to you...

2010-12-28T14:01:00.842-06:00

Diana, I am SO sorry to hear that! Prayers to you and your family during this time.

It is so hard being the 'sandwich' generation, I'm right there with you.

Hugs!

Hi Terry - thank you for your prayers and encouragement. I will keep you in mine. It's nice to know I have such lovely ladies supporting me with their prayers!

Howdy Diana
I have followed you for some time,but due to caring for my own parents I have been very remiss about my blogging comments as well as postings .
Please know that I will be lifting you and yours up in prayer.
God is and will be there for you in many unexpected ways .
Shock is not bad it is a way to help us wade into the cold dark waters of the unknown areas of life.
Remember that you are only a blog post away from any needed help that may be required .
Please continue to share your journey as you begin to embark upon this chapter of your life it will be of help to you as well as others.
God bless you and yours.
Until next time
Happy Trails

Thank you Mary. You are always so kind. I'm still in a bit of shock. She did have a priest come by a few months ago, so that is a comfort to know.

Hi Christine - I see you found my blog too. ...It was a great conference. I love Scott Hahn's books, so it was wonderful to hear him speak.

I need to blog more - I see it's been awhile. Glad you came for a visit!

2010-10-14T15:39:05.923-05:00

Oh, I heard about that conference. I bet it was great! Scott Hahn was one of my professors in college and he literally changed my life!

Can't wait to read more of your blog when I get a moment!

Hi Sherry and Angie - thank you both for stopping by! Hope you are both having a wonderful and blessed summer. It's always neat to hear from fellow Texans.

Sherry - I do indeed need to learn to listen more to God AND love that you too are a 7th gen TX.

Love your post.

2010-08-25T22:16:03.613-05:00

Just found your blog through musings of a Hungry Catholic and wanted to say 1) What is always wonderful is the knowledge that God is always speaking to us if we are willing to listen (and as we all know, that's the hard part) and 2) I'm a 7th generation Texan myself. I'll come back to visit again.

I know!

I read about that not too long ago and my jaw literally dropped. Scary indeed!

The credit goes to Angie at Many Little Blessings for getting us started even thinking about it. And she still asks for things, but we tell her to save up her money. And I like that she is growing up with the idea of saving and giving to others.

We love the Berenstain Bears!

2010-05-20T19:06:41.353-05:00

That is absolutely amazing that she's doing so well with her allowance!

That's a great system that you've worked out with her, too.

Ah, the 'Gimmies." I was in love with the Berenstain Bears as a child, and apparently that book worked on me, lol! Not so much with my nieces and nephews, however...

I'm definitely going to remember this for when our little guy comes to an age to think about allowances!

I'm sure there are those who would claim that ...

2010-04-09T15:52:26.237-05:00

I'm sure there are those who would claim that Dallas is Heaven. :D Heaven on earth anyway. Well, at least it shows he's very happy!

Thanks for joining in, and come back next week with more stories. I'd love to read them. :)

In Christ,
Lucy
