Good mmorning Dolly - will be at work and in meetings all day. Hope to check in this p.m.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

Good morning!

[prairiebreeze]

Good morning Dolly and everybody. The house next door to where we lived for 19 years in the Chicago burbs had 3 sets of twins born to it, all from the different families that moved in and out. Sort of remarkable that number of twins to be born in that time span for one lone address.

Dolly, since we were able to meet you personally, I thought you'd be intereted to know that Mr. Prairie and I are celebrating our Silver Anniversary today.

[MamaTexan]

I'm not a twin, but I have twins....does that count?

:-)

[DollyCali]

of course that counts! if you are willing we would love to have you show them off w/a pix!

[DollyCali]

love them! I am hoping for a White House wedding .. rumor is that Jenna is engaged.. but rumors are rumors!

[Dr. Scarpetta]

That would be so much fun!

[DollyCali]

Happy Anniversary!

Behind The Scenes

LISTEN TO ODB RADIO: Real | MP3 | WMA

READ: John 3:22-36

He must increase, but I must decrease. —John 3:30 People around the world instantly recognize Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch from the children’s TV show Sesame Street. But Caroll Spinney is not a well-known celebrity, even though he has brought both characters to life on the popular program since 1969. A skilled puppeteer, Spinney has been content to work behind the scenes.

I believe God calls every follower of Jesus to take a similar approach in making Him known to the world. John the Baptist told his listeners: “I said, ‘I am not the Christ,’ but, ‘I have been sent before Him.’ . . . He must increase, but I must decrease” (John 3:28,30). John acknowledged that he was not the bridegroom, but only His friend (v.29).

Oswald Chambers reminds us: “Goodness and purity ought never to attract attention to themselves, they ought simply to be magnets to draw to Jesus Christ. A beautiful saint may be a hindrance if he does not present Jesus Christ but only what Christ has done for him; he will leave the impression—‘What a fine character that man is!’—that is not being a true friend of the Bridegroom; I am increasing all the time, He is not.”

Jesus the Savior is onstage. We must be behind the scenes. —David C. McCasland

When you share the Lord with others,
See that He is on display;
For the world to see Him clearly,
We must not get in the way.  —Sper

He who glories, let him glory in the Lord.  —2 Corinthians 10:17

Bible in One Year: Bible in One Year:   Psalms 91-93; Romans 15:1-13

Good morning, Dolly...everyone.

[GodBlessUSA]

Very interesting and lovely thread Dolly.
Neat collage of Jenna and Barbara :)

[prairiebreeze]

thankyou!

[MamaTexan]

if you are willing we would love to have you show them off w/a pix!

LOL! My pleasure! This was taken last year when the girls were 11. A lot of people have trouble telling them apart, even though they're fraternal twins.

(posting this reminds me they have to have their pictures taken again before the end of the year... it's a Mom thing :-)

[GodBlessUSA]

I hope your computer works for you. It is so frustrating.

[DollyCali]

Hi Lysie! Decided to check news & email before reboot.."just in case".. computers.. you love them to pieces or they drive you crazy w/frustration! Not much in-between ground, at least for me.
