Plato (427-346 B.C.) We are all growing older.  There are more old people daily and more crossing over the 65 mark. After being around many between that age and up, I know one thing… I do not want to be a grumpy old person.  Do you?   "Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be." Robert Browning (1812-1889)

" Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and through grace gave us eternal comfort and good hope, comfort your hearts and strengthen them in every good work and word ." 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17 Lauren was here yesterday. She has grown so much in the past week and the changes are evident. She is starting to pull that head in every direction and her neck is stronger. She played with us for several hours yesterday morning and then happily took her bottle and went to sleep. Babies draw comfort from soft voices, smiles and from nursing or taking a bottle. They think nothing of where they next meal will come from, or who is holding them next...they trust and they are comforted by us. Lauren and her Bampa. Where do you go for comfort? Do you give comfort to others? If something begins to stress you today, acknowledge it and give it
