Cuuute! love it!

[Billie]

Thank *you*, Amy - for keeping Amy’s Place alive and fun and a happy place. :)

LOL, good one.

Did you see Rus (The Mayor) on Glenn Beck?

[JustAmy]

THANK YOU, Billie.

I do have a graphic for you but I stopped to watch Rus on The Glenn Beck Show.

He did wonderful .... just didn’t have much time.

I’ll find your graphic later. :)

[JustAmy]

Yes, we watched The Mayor. He did great; I wish he had had more time to expose ACORN for the thugs they are!

Day is done.
Gone the sun.
From the lakes
From the hills
From the sky.
All is well.
Safely rest.
God is nigh.

Fading light.
Dims the sight.
And a star.
Gems the sky.
Gleaming bright.
From afar.
Drawing nigh.
Falls the night.

Thanks and praise.
For our days.
Neath the sun
Neath the stars.
Neath the sky
As we go.
This we know.
God is nigh


RIP, Staff Sgt. Edmond L. Lo

May God Bless and Comfort your friends and family.

Verse For a Certain Dog

Such glorious faith as fills your limpid eyes, Dear little friend of mine, I never knew. All-innocent are you, and yet all-wise. (For Heaven's sake, stop worrying that shoe!) You look about, and all you see is fair; This mighty globe was made for you alone. Of all the thunderous ages, you're the heir. (Get off the pillow with that dirty bone!) A skeptic world you face with steady gaze; High in young pride you hold your noble head, Gayly you meet the rush of roaring days. (Must you eat puppy biscuit on the bed?) Lancelike your courage, gleaming swift and strong, Yours the white rapture of a winged soul, Yours is a spirit like a Mayday song. (God help you, if you break the goldfish bowl!) "Whatever is, is good" - your gracious creed. You wear your joy of living like a crown. Love lights your simplest act, your every deed. (Drop it, I tell you- put that kitten down!) You are God's kindliest gift of all - a friend. Your shining loyalty unflecked by doubt, You ask but leave to follow to the end. (Couldn't you wait until I took you out?) Dorothy Parker

Good afternoon again, Billie. :)
Happy Warm Fuzzy Wednesday.

Thank you for the wonderful kid graphics and poems this week.
Great way to remember the fathers.

Thanks for all you do.

[JustAmy]

Thank you, Jaycee.

Hope you are having a Warm Fuzzy Wednesday.

[jaycee]

What a precious graphic and frame. Dalmations are cute dogs, aren’t they? Thank you, Amy. Hope everything is well with you. Is Missy going to be able to start with swim lessons?

[fewz]

Glenn went a bit long with Walpin. I guess both things are important and both are scandalous.

[yorkie]

OMG - you mean there is a way to lighten a jpeg? I never knew there WAS such a thing. Well, I hope I’ll never be so old that I don’t learn new tricks! :-)

[yorkie]

I saw it! Dang! Glenn didn’t give him enough time to tell the WHOLE story!

Good job, Rus!!!

[JustAmy]

Ooops .... sorry that I missed you, Majie.

Hope to see you tomorrow.

Have a beautiful Warm Fuzzy evening.

[JustAmy]

Cute Wednesday Graphic, Jaycee.

[JustAmy]

Both times.
