You spread good cheer, good feelings and creativity to anyone who was willing to take them!<br /><br />I had to look up "Illegitimi non carborundum". Thanks to the writer of that phrase - I shall add it to my words of wisdom.<br /><br />Thanks, Ellen, for your wise words.Roberta Ranneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01856425999385317976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1777263724982522569.post-29469324613121865502010-05-23T14:21:44.811-05:002010-05-23T14:21:44.811-05:00Beautifully written Ellen.

I'm sure he doesn't think of them as evil, just cute. Your quilt is fabulous!

Thank goodness she doesn't venture to the NC beaches!

I take heart in them each time I read your blog. <br />As for criticism from an uninformed busy-body, her actions befit a sad and disappointed and disappointing woman. She deserves no more thought.<br />Be well and keep on sharing; you inspire.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1777263724982522569.post-4284035119435173042010-05-23T11:22:09.190-05:002010-05-23T11:22:09.190-05:00We're all human and nobody's perfect - I a...We're all human and nobody's perfect - I always think of that when someone errs or I do.<br />As far as the woman in church - I can't believe that! How petty. I guess she never read any of the Brothers Grimm or Aesop's Fables - the frog turns into a Prince.... Or maybe she was thinking of...<br />In the book of Revelation it says that ... he saw three unclean spirits like frogs.<br />But in Early Christianity, a frog was a symbol of the Resurrection. (slept in the winter and awoke in the spring) I love frogs and I think they're cute!Uniquely Yours Creationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09939273533694384790noreply@blogger.com
