Sunday was my daughter Erin's birthday.  She's so sweet. After church, Teresa got her these nice flowers and presented them to her.

A nice meal followed ... candles to blow out, a cake, and our family tradition of singing "stand up stand up we won't shut up until you stand up
... around the table you must go you must go you must go"

Ya know, I knew that those flowers wouldn't last forever but I sure am glad that there is one thing that DOES last forever.

Isaiah 40:8-
"The grass withers and the flowers fade, but the word of our God stands forever."
