I found this bookmark while packing the house. And was encouraged by the meaning of my name - Susan.

This is the wall of my dining hall. Every morning while having breakfast with my family, it reminds me to live life to the fullest, to fill my every day with love and laughter. Live, love, laugh... My way of life.

Gavin turned 1 on 17th Dec 2011. He could not sit up, see or talk but he inspires me by his tenacity to survive. When all the docs and nurses gave up hope, his parents did not give up & neither did Gavin. You are a miracle, Gavin & you are perfect in the sight of God & all your family who love you!

Check out my new hot pan mitten, what a thoughtful Christmas gift! Looks like this is the way God wants me to experience life in this season ~ Live, Laugh, Love!

Someone whom I do not have much contact with sent me this poster. It encouraged me greatly. Sometimes, God just sends people you least expected to remind you that He is there for you and that's enough!

When the going gets tough, the tough gets going. Faith makes ALL things possible, not easy!

My favorite quote today from Pst Kent Mattox from Word Alive Church, "Love never forgives because love is never offended".

Check out God is still God by Heather Williams! A song that encourages me greatly. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hcYDcLiiXmU

This is Peggy and she is 61 years old. I see her everyday at the Starbucks I go to after dropping the kids. Without fail, she is always chirpy and full of energy. She spares no effort to cheer her customers up and make an effort to know their names. She asked me my name one day and the next day, she called me by my name when I walked in. She inspires me because she loves people, she loves her work and she loves her life!
