SelfLESSness

Today...May it about Christ, not about me.
Today...May I lift someone up, not drag them down.
Today...May I look at myself and the selfishness within before judging others.
Today...May I place another's troubles before my own.
Today...people are hungry, children are homeless-my own troubles are petty.
Today....before saying something unkind to someone, may I stop and think what they may be going through
Today...May I be Christ in the world
Today...May I stop thinking about myself.
Today...May I be selfless.

Do nothing out of selfishness or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves.  Phillipians 2:3

Sounds like a verse and a daily sacrifice on the alter that will be ongoing for the rest of my life!

Lyman Invasion!

Travis and Jenny's wedding brought  housefuls of out-of-town family.  The pool was a fun, noisy place to put this bunch for several hours!  =}  Lots of fun!

And there went the summer!

Sophie got to ride on the road this year, but whenever there was a crack in it, she jumped off her bike and walked it across!  It was a lot of off and on!  She didn't like the teetering sensation of the training wheels.  
Some of our children were particularly intrigued by the extraordinarily large marshmallows that were available in the stores this year!
