Thank you, Amy. It was so slow this morning, I was
wondering if we were still here. :)

YOUR post is darling! Love the colors, and
that tiny little girl is so squeezable!

“You do realize that I was only 5 years old, don’t you?

LOL”

You swear, I’ll lie to it ;-)

[Billie]

Little girl ballerinas are so cute with their
chubby little legs - lots of sweet pictures today.

[Billie]

Thanks, Meg. I've been thinking about using that
ballerina picture for a long time - finally found
what I wanted to go 'with' it in that Dancer's Prayer. :)

I can just hear those three darling little girls you
posted being so excited about all the applause they got!

[Billie]

How sweet seeing all those baby raccoons! I’m glad they’ve been showing back up for you (and Silky) to admire! :)

[Billie]

I didn’t think about there being music for the ballerinas, but am letting the song download now. Thanks, Amy!

[Billie]

Thank you, yorkie, and what a sweet, sweet,
sleepy little ballerina you posted!

[Lady Jag]

Still too busy to download the photos. They’re serving as a carrot on a stick.

[Billie]

Thank you, jaycee. I missed seeing you yesterday
and hoped you were just busy and not feeling really
bad. Glad you liked the butterfly & verbena! I actually
took the picture from inside the window
so was happy it turned out as well as it did!

[Billie]

So sweet!

Amy and Billie, I Loved your Opening Butterfly Post from Yesterday,
And Billie and Meg, your Ballerina Post is Sweet.
Amy, your Butterfly Pics and Frames from Yesterday were just Awesome!
Meg, I Love your Butterfly and Frame in #1661; So Very Lovely.
Billie, Thank you for Sharing the Pic you Snaped of the Beautiful Black Butterfly,
So we could See it. (Those Red Flowers are Pretty, too!)
Jaycee, your Lord's Day Graphic on Sunday was So Beautiful! I Loved it!

(((((((Thank you to Everyone for the Pings and Posts)))))))

[Billie]

Thank you, Miss Kitty! Hope you're having a good day!

I have to say, while I remember them all very well, I have to say that seeing them disappear may have been a bad thing for America. We speed ahead into the future so fast we oft lose the things that shaped us, made us more aware. Now our children and their children will have even less to hold, and less to value.

REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!

Gunnery Sgt. David Shane Spicer, USMC, KIA 13JUL2009

I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)

Eternal Father, Strong to Save



Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, amid these who heeded the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!

I have certainly enjoyed all the pretty, cute and funny posts of little ballerinas today! Cute as can be! Hate I missed the fun!

That was thoroughly enjoyable, Amy (Nat’s song at post #1687...in the context of the thread). WOW! One of a kind, Nat King Cole.

Thanks to all.
