"An Old Mans Pleasures" January 1, 2011 ~ Tom Milam

Read ~ Ps. 127: 1-5

3  Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
4  As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
5  Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: . . .



Aislinn Rose and her famous "Breakfast Casserole!"



     I have had many pleasures in life and the older I get the more meaningful they are.  On this first day of this year I am blessed to have three out of 10 grandchildren with us.  Aislinn is making an egg casserole, she is nine years old.  Aubree is fussing at me because I am not moving fast enough to the table to eat.  And Avery is seated after we put sticks and fresh leaves in her most recent pet's cage - A caterpillar named "Flower".

   Grandma is engineering all efforts toward a most delicious "brunch".  Aubree is nearly three and Avery is almost seven.

   I'm getting ready to have prayer and a devotion to start off the new year right.  I am so blessed to be surrounded with so much love.

   May we all sing praises to Christ, and talk of Him thoughout this new year with gladness and dedication.  May each of our lives touch another life along this year long journey, for the Glory of God.
