Having a Birthday?  It's my Birth Day Too!

Our youngest son turns 31 today.  I told him it was my Birth Day too. I was there giving birth on that day...so doesn't that qualify?

My Dad would say he was in his 32nd year already, but that truly makes me feel older and I feel old enough already. 


We have watched him grow from a tow headed toddler into teen and then off to college.  Now we are seven years after college graduation... and with the bumps and challenges along the way, he has emerged to be a fine man.


Each man in life has his own journey to make, his own tale to tell and his joys to share.  The challenges in life make us stronger. We grow through learning sometimes painfully, trying to make things always be one direction, our direction.  We find as we grow older we have to live and love and accept not only ourselves for who we are, but others as well.


Mother and So
When he married this summer we celebrated again joyful that he found a soul mate in his sweet wife that he knew from church as a young teen.

We begin to discover with age that we have facets of our lives we keep hidden and protected. We realize we are vulnerable.  And if we are really blessed, we are listening and we realize God has full control over everything.

Accept this moment in this day and celebrate life. God is good.


Happy Birthday Son.

MOM

words of my heart, Laurie

 “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.” Ephesians 6:12-13 NIV

Mixed Media Collage Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Justus Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Horse Collage Fall 2013  12 x 18 inches Mixed Media on Canvas.  This was an intentional paint to imitate one of the 100 ponies I did in 2012. That poor little 8 x 10 pony was loved by a company to do very large prints and it was not here for me to even use to scan... so I created something with the same heart, a kindred spirit. The underlays are pages from a western book and then torn papers of different varieties were added along with stains of paint and purposeful areas of paint.  This would not be a painting I would do today, but the goal was to capture the spirit of the first painting.

Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2010 My Website   Thinking ahead to the Thanksgiving celebration next week, I remembered back to those previous dinners that I cooked, served, ate quickly, and cleaned up.  This is how I felt.  It is probably strange...even for me but I had the best fun sketching it out and painting it. We lost another dear family member this week. She has celebrated her 'continuation' day and is now with her mom and dad and her other cousins.  She leaves behind a family that will always celebrate her gentleness.  My aunt was special to all of us. She loved each of us dearly for who we were and was always ready with a hug or a 'good job'.    My memories are of breakfast pastries smeared with butter on top. It was not like they were not sweet enough as they were, but at her small kitch...

Sleeping Cowboy . Ernest Hemingway . Sunday, a day of rest . Western Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

   © +Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2019 Sleeping Cowboy Commissioned Painting for one of our oldest friends. 2004  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW MY BLOG  ON INSTAGRAM     @lauriepaceblog Available Paintings by Laurie Pace          “I love sleep. My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?” Ernest Hemingway  I really enjoyed painting this scene. It was restful to me as the artist  and loved by our friends.  Sunday is the day of rest. I smiled when I found this in archives and thought it perfect for this day.  If you live in Texas you know that we still have 'rules' about not selling liquor before noon.  If you live in Texas and are in your late thirties and up, you might even remember Blue Laws.   Stores were simply NOT open...
