Happy Birthday to my Firstborn Son

         

                                              Bub and his dog.

     Gosh, it is so hard to believe that it has been 24 years since God blessed me with my firstborn son.  Brandon, aka “Bub” brings so much joy, laughter and blessings to me, Ron and to his little brother a Ronny.  He and Ronny truly are best friends and life is NEVER boring with Bub in my life.

             As each year passes, you become more and more a fine young man of such integrity.  I celebrate your birthday because ever since you arrived in this world you have added such value and joy to my life.   People often say that when you have a baby your life is over but that is not true for me.  My life finally began for real and gained meaning once I had my boys!

  

    We have had so very many great times and I cherish the memories that have been made with you.  I will always be here for you and you will ALWAYS hold a special place in my heart.  I don't think I could live my life now without you in it....

 Everyone, please pray for blessings to rain down on my son today and for the years to come. 
    

    To get a glance of why I am so proud of my son, please check out a few of his sermons that are up on Youtube.  Bub became a preacher when he was just 18.  

Here also are a few videos of him playing his bass. He is self-taught.

 

 

 

 

As a tribute to Bub, we are fixing some of his favorite foods…mini cherry cheesecakes and my homemade potato salad.

 

Feel free to leave Bub a comment down below.

Monthly Update

    Gosh, I am sure glad May 2020 is over with.  It was a rough month for everyone and now with the civil unrest going on, June is not really off to a great start.  We all just need to continue to pray for our nation.  Pray for protection.  Pray for healing.  

    My health was not too good in May either.  Not really had any illnesses or anything but I just do not have the energy to be out of bed for more than a few hours a day.  I get up for about an hour or so in the morning and then about the same amount of time in the evenings.  With all of my medical problems and health issues (multiple sclerosis, heart failure, diabetes, etc.), my heart is having trouble pumping blood throughout my body and my feet and legs swell and my toes turn purple so I am following the doctor's orders and staying in bed as much as possible. 

  Since I have had to spend so much time in bed, I have not been able to do much blogging but will try to do better this month.  But on to the monthly update for the month of May.

     The most popular post for the month of May was my Homemade Au Jus Mix.  A mix to make delicious au jus right from the comfort of your own home.

   My most popular Youtube video on my Youtube Channel for the month of May was actually a video of my oldest son (22) playing the bass guitar.  He started sharing videos of original songs and people are really responding well to them.  

 
   On Pinterest, my top board is my Dehydrating board. And the most pinned post was on Dehydrating Peeps. And currently trending right now is my Breakfast Rice Pudding! It is filling and delicious and very economical to make.

     My favorite post right now is Dehydrating Aloe Vera.  In the post I explain not only how I dehydrate Aloe Vera but why I dehydrate it.
