“The family is the first essential cell of human society.”
Pope John XXIII
You don’t choose your family.
They are God’s gift to you, as you are to them.
Desmond Tutu
The Mayor and Chief Aide / Julie Cook / 2019)
Small hiatus today from the heavy important posts…opting to share a
few happy moments with the Mayor.
I do fret just a tad when, in two months time, her new sheriff in town arrives…
and her little world will be rocked beyond her understanding…
but as the consummate leader that she is, I trust she will rise to the occasion
of big sister with impeccable grace…
But for now, she remains the queen bee—
as we see how she takes to a new birthday chair given to her by her great aunt…
(I think she’d like it to recline)
Mugging for the camera with Moppie…
Back to the serious stuff tomorrow…
Yet oddly… this seems to be the most important “stuff” for now…
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation,
God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness
into his wonderful light.
1 Peter 2:9
