Laughter is the word of the day. Proverbs 17:22 says, “A merry heart does good, like a medicine.” What does that mean? It means that laughter is good for you. Paul McGhee, Ph.D. said, “Your sense of humor is one of the most powerful tools you have to make […]
“But I want to be the bad guy!”
We were at the house on a Sunday afternoon, watching the Cowboys game, (which they lost) when my grandson Kanon, came running in dressed in a Pirate’s Costume. Starla had purchased several costumes for the grandkids to dress up in when they are over at our house. Kanon’s Daddy, Kolt, […]
