Lunch On Pop

 Pop used to get Erin and Laura a box of chocolates on Valentine's.  This year he put 20 bucks in their cards and told them to buy lunch for themselves and a friend.  Laura treated two friends so they may have had a light lunch!
Jonell picked these in north Arkansas this morning.  Here they are just coming up and getting ready to shine.  She must have some early version.  They sure look springy!  She said everything else in her yard was grey today.  That is the way it is here!!

Helen called to say she was rendering lard.  I just thought glad it is you not me.  When Momma would do a batch of lard it would take all day and was hard labor!

Today's devotional was about accepting a gift--a gift you have not earned and do not deserve!  No matter how hard you work to make yourself worthy of the gift you will fall short.  Salvation is a free gift and we must accept it knowing that it is more than we deserve, more than we can earn!   Grace delivered!  Give a gift today without expecting anything in return!

I lost my 20 dollars somewhere. Had to borrow money from Clayton to get into the basketball game.
