Aren't grandchildren the absolute best? :) Glad you enjoyed the photos and hope you will visit often. I'm writing Meditations of My Heart sporadically from now until the end of August as I'm needing to spend time writing my next series of novels, but you can find me at my alternate blog, Moments and Musings - http://jordanorlando.blogspot.com.<br />Love and blessings!Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-29491043532370017182014-07-31T11:40:12.072-07:002014-07-31T11:40:12.072-07:00Linda, I love your point about growth.

Such a shame!<br />Glad you enjoyed the photos (the one with the party horn is my favorite, too), and thanks for your kind words about Virginia Rose. :)<br />Love and blessings!Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-33596758135356790972014-07-29T10:41:29.908-07:002014-07-29T10:41:29.908-07:00Hi Martha, I'm a new visitor.

Virginia Rose is such a beauty! I ...Hi, Martha! ~<br /><br />Virginia Rose is such a beauty! I especially love the photo where she is blowing the party horn in Daddy's face -- haha! Instant classic!<br /><br /><br />It is true, as you say, that "time marches on", however I disagree that "growth is inevitable". I see many people every day who refuse to grow and cling to what they know, like a baby clinging to a security blanket. Unfortunately, there is no security is avoiding growth.<br /><br />Thank you for this thoughtful and lovely post! xoxoDangerous Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12442306921276302945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-29599221437538724852014-07-28T15:11:27.642-07:002014-07-28T15:11:27.642-07:00So glad this message encouraged and inspired you, ...So glad this message encouraged and inspired you, Vishnu!

Thank you for sharing the adorable photos of your granddaughters. They are a reminder of God's constant blessings in our lives. God makes so much time for us and loves us so much. How often do we dedicate every day of our lives to him? Your post made me wonder about that and encouraged me to let God play an even more important role in our daily life. <br /><br />Thank you for this post and encouraging message.

That has been so true for me, and I imagine other Christians would have the same story to tell. Jesus makes all the difference, doesn't He?<br />Love and blessings to you, too!Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-53073217941308418102014-07-25T15:22:34.593-07:002014-07-25T15:22:34.593-07:00Thank you so much, Suzy!

You're grand...Another meaningful post, Martha! You're granddaughters are beautiful and "growing like weeds". :)<br /><br />As I reflect on the last ten years, I've experienced so many changes--particularly in my relationship with the Lord. It was about ten years ago, that I really returned to the Lord and got serious about things.<br /><br />In the end, my life is not the same, not what it once was--and for that I'm thankful! The Lord brought a wonderful pastor into my life, who He has used greatly to minister to me. I'm doing things (namely preaching) that I never thought I would do! <br /><br />All praise, honor, and glory goes to God!<br /><br />Happy Birthday to Virginia!!<br /><br />Love and Blessings!
