Sometimes we need a lil faith, if not in the good ole Lord, then maybe in ourselves. I think we ofter underestimate ourselves in the burdens we can endure.

So true, Momma. Seems like some get more than their fair share of burdens. But....in troubled times my sweet Daddy used to repeat the "Footprints" poem. I love that poem and have turned to it many a time in the past few years. That one set of footprints has brought me through many a trial.

I sure do hope you've got some sweet tea with lemon in there, Momma. It's hot enough to fry an egg on the pavement here today. A good ole' mater sammich on white bread with lots of mayo and black pepper plus that sweet tea would sure hit the spot today. Just too hot to eat much of anything else.

Maybe later we can spread some newspapers on the porch and cut a cold watermelon. Yum!!
