Do you wonder?

Grace is yours

Do you sometimes wonder about the stories that could be told by an old house?


Tell me who you were?  Tell me about the family — Joys —Sorrows—What made you laugh or cry—were there children—what were their names — did you have a dog—what was your Momma’s name—where did your people come from —-

Her name was Margie-joe. She was named after her grandparents who lived with the family their whole lives.  Her momma had been a hard birthing and there would be no other children.
They loved each other.

Sure there were times when they had a quarrel. You know, when do we let the dog stay inside because it’s a bad storm?  Or spending money frivolously on a new dress for the little girl for church so for a while they looked like they were doing ok.  Ok was about the best they ever did.
They loved each other.

God abides
