AND I wish I knew where all my photos disappeared to!

:bawl:

This isn't knitting, but it's close, and such a great picture I had to share.

Painted sheep! Talk about pre-dyed wool!

Oh, that is so sweet of you guys!

She is such a precious girl to me, and I appreciate that you all so wonderfully indulge my desire to share her with the world.

:flowers:

:lol:

Sometimes I just kept clicking the shutter. If you watch them fast it does look like a movie....

It's too bad she moved her head a little, since that part of her is a tad blurry.

This is MY favourite!

I'll try to remember next time she's here.

:ahem:

I am not sure exactly how much bowel he had removed, and I am not privy to any info about his risks or if there were already polyps or whatever. Also, I have no idea whether or not they were able to...

She was getting tired of me taking her picture.


Every 5 seconds I would say, "Kasha! Look at me!" And she would sigh and look at me, and maybe she would smile.

She enjoyed her cake. And wanted us all to enjoy her cake, too.

I have no problems with her choice. I have a dear friend who's husband discovered he has the gene marker for a certain type of bowel cancer. He had a large portion of his bowel removed several...

:hug:

It is Lightning McQueen, I do believe.

She is a child of eclectic taste. Loves Barbie and all the Disney princesses, especially Rapunzel, as well as Carz and Toy Story.

Makes it easy to get...

I called her this morning. She picked up the phone and said, "Hello?".

I sang, "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you......"

"Oh, Grandma."

"Happy birthday dear Kasha, happy...

She's 4 today.

:sigh:

Can't believe it.

I wonder if this is the reason why the language on the debit machine I was using a little while ago suddenly changed from English to French.

:noid:

Or, it could have been that I accidentally...

:hug:

But it's so pretty!

Even that solar flare is comprised of my favourite quilting colours! Green and purple!

Yeah!

I agree. I have nothing against what we used to call "special music", which can include solos or any other group singing, or piano solo or other musical thingy where someone is actually performing....

You also can't do that if you are up there to be in the spotlight.

Yeah!

Edit to add: This was in response to CP's last post.

Music is and always has been a big deal in my life. My mother played the piano, as did 2 of my older sisters. We spent time at the piano singing for as long as I can remember. I never had formal...

My husband was the same way while leading the singing. He also just called himself song leader. For a few years the pastor would phone with his scripture and title of his sermon and Mr. mossy would...

:yes:

It's contemporary to me, since I only heard it for the first time a couple of years ago.

No wonder I am so confused all the time.

The pagans also used repetition to evoke an emotional response and whip themselves into a frenzy.

:tongue:

Yep. I think that so much of the contemporary music is used to evoke an emotional response, which is "what the pagans do" by their "vain repetitions".

Try, "Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it, redeemed by the blood of the Lamb,
Redeemed through His infinite mercy, His child and forever I am."

Some of the songs today are so bad we may as well be singing those words. There's about as much theological depth to them as singing about Krispy Kremes.

There are still a few hymns that are pretty bad. One that makes me wince is "In the Garden".

I read this quite a long time ago, and think it is quite correct.

That's exactly what they are!

My favourite contemporary song is "How Deep the Father's Love For Us". There ARE some good ones. Unfortunately, there are more awful ones than good.

I am with you on that one, brother.

That was another point we brought up once. I asked the pastor what he thought about the scripture being shot up onto the wall, and the fact that nobody then opened up their Bibles. I said, "we may...

I frankly would not have so many issues with contemporary music if those choosing it would consider more carefully the songs they pick, as I said in my previous post. Banal words, many repetitions...

With powerpoint and words of songs being projected up on the wall or a screen at the front of the church, the pastor has not much option but to sit at the front of the congregation facing the front,...

Why did you eventually leave, GJ?

Yeah!




YEAH!

I am so glad!

:smile:

We were accused, I don't know how many times, of "allowing Satan to use this issue to bring division". Finally, one day, after hearing it AGAIN, I fired back, "Yes, I do believe Satan is using this...

If we keep our eyes open, we can see God in everything around us.

Thanks for your insight, CP. Always appreciated.
