How do you keep your blog readers interested, after indulging in a political rant?
By posting pictures of puppies, of course!
~~~~~
Meet Kepler.
Or alternatively, at 2:30 a.m.,
Remington, Kestrel,
Lucy, Keebler,
Rupert, PeePot,
Daffodil…
It's hard for my 40-something brain to remember names of famous scientists that early in the morning!
As you can see, though, no matter her name…she is bringing us great joy!
In case you can't tell…he adores her…
and would eat her up, if we let him…sorry for the blurry action shot. My brother had to move quickly to catch this almost-puppy-paw munch – with his Blackberry, no less!
Many thanks to Mr. Mark and Mrs. Sonja for Isaac's new friend!

I hope y'all have a restful weekend.
We probably won't, but it will all be worth it when this potty/kennel training is behind us. And even if we aren't well rested, we will be more health-ful due to the laughter!!!
🙂
Blessings,

Something pretty I've been working on…
(It's clickable, if you want a closer look…)

Do you see that vine on the fence?
Last year, my dad sprayed it with some vile weed killer
and it withered up and died.
Now, this summer, it is back and just as pretty as ever.
Perserverance…it's a good thing!
Happy weekend!
Twenty-three years ago today
I cannot remember being nervous at all.
I only remember being incredibly happy…
…and feeling extremely loved.
We were just babies, and we didn't have a clue what things the future held for us; but our Lord has been wonderfully faithful to us for the past 23 years.
…and here's to many more!!!

A love note from my sweetie
It seems to me that "being married to your best friend" has become quite a cliche' these days, but for me it is utterly true. I have never had a better friend than Doug. And I am incredibly thankful!

Our church's Junior Week of Camp was this week. The tabernacle was fabulously decorated for their theme of "Knights of Nobility, Knights of Knowledge." I wasn't able to go out (Isaac's wheelchair does not exactly roll in Florida sand! lol!); but my cousin Joy did a post about it. You can check it out here: Case Crossings.
This is the same camp where I spent a few weeks every summer as a child, a teen and, later, as a counselor. Camp Glory holds many precious memories for me, especially memories of seeing God's hand at work among us while we were there. This week was no exception – with boys and girls being saved and learning about the Lord and His Word.
I had lovely lunch out with Doug and Isaac yesterday (after a doctor's visit for Isaac), and this yummy peach tea was SO tasty after being out in the near-100* temperatures.
I've been having some issues with my internet access this week. We're trying to determine if it is the modem, or if it is our router. I hope to have those issues settled by next week. 🙂
I pray you have a good weekend, and that, if you are able, you spend time in God's church, worshipping with your fellow believers. I promise it will be a blessing to you to assemble yourself together with others who know the Lord and are seeking to please Him, too.
Blessings,
Alesha

"The Day I Found a Rainbow in My Mailbox"
Isaac has many friends.
Mrs. Cheryl at Copperswife is one of them.
She sent this fabulous rainbow of washcloths for him.
Aren't they lovely?
This one is my favorite…it might go "missing" from Isaac's stack and end up in mine!
I just love this "star" one – it just screams "little boy washcloth" to me.
Thank you, Cheryl, for loving my boy.
🙂

…And one more pic for Foto Friday.
This is the June picture on the calendar that hangs in our bathroom.
It makes me smile every time I see it.
Of course, if you know Jesus Christ as your Saviour, you have EVERY reason in the world to be happy!
I Peter 1:8 – "Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory"
Wishing you a Happy Weekend!
