“As an aircraft landed at the airport, a flight attendant made this announcement:
“Ladies and gentlemen, we have a very special person on board this evening. He is ninety-six years old today, and this is his very first flight. As you deplane this evening, please stop by the cockpit and wish our captain Happy Birthday!”
“Those who do not know how to weep with their whole heart don’t know how to laugh either.” ~ Golda Meir ~
“You don’t stop laughing because you grow old. You grow old because you stop laughing.”
~ Michael Pritchard ~
“A boy took his baby sister fishing while his parents went shopping. “I’ll never do that again!” he told his parents that evening. “I didn’t catch a thing.”
“Was she too noisy?” asked his mother.
“It wasn’t that,” the boy said. “She ate all the bait.”
“The second day of a diet is always easier than the first. By the second day you’re off it.”
“When someone says, “Life is hard,” ask him, “Compared to what?”
If you’d like a name added to the prayer list, please let me know. Names will be kept for one week, then we begin again. Around the world, people are praying.

Yvonne, I don't laugh nearly enough!
Vicki, I'm not sure when I'll get to the condo but surely by September. I like going when school is in session as it's quieter.
LindaSue, that was my favorite quote as well.
Mildred, Beth's name was added to that Sunday's Prayer Keeping list.
Anne, their names were added.
Diana, thank you for praying.
Midlo, wise instruction indeed!
Karen, I like being the funny people.
Carol, thank you, thank you, thank you!
Glenda, cheering with you.
Anne, Ray's name was added.
Dori, those were two of my favorites, pure wisdom!
"Aging gracefully means living long enough to make a joke of the things that were once breaking your heart."
"You don't stop laughing because you grow old. You grow old because you stop laughing."
These are my favourites, they just are highest wisdom! Thank you, Thistle!
Hi! It is so late and I need some rest but need prayer! My late sisters brother-in-law has cancer and the doctors are awful and the family is just sick. So please pray for Ray. Thank you
Three cheers for laughter.
Fondly,
Glenda
Great quotes!
Love, love love the Acorn stove! What a treasure!
And your house is so very beautiful.
Joy! Joy! Joy!
I like funny people.
Last night at a wedding, there was a dance for the married couples. They weeded them out, year by year and each one married over 30 years got to give advice to the newly marrieds. I told them to keep a good sense of humor….I am sending them this post! Laughter IS the best defense!
What a wonderful post. I do believe that laughter has cured us of many ills. It has kept me going sometimes when the road was so tough I was afraid to look ahead. Blessings to you and praying for those that need prayer- xo Diana
Such a beautiful post! Always a pleasure to come visit here. Prayer for Ed and Cheri and their hateful bitterness toward their oldest son. Life is too short for this behavior.
Thank you and many blessings to you!
Anne
Wonderful post this Sunday morning. Please add Beth to your prayer list as she goes to find out her treatment plant this week.
God bless you today!
"Aging gracefully means living long enough to make a joke of the things that were once breaking your heart."
Oh Sandra – that may be a new favorite quote for me! Wonderful reflections on a Sunday and I am grateful for you as a friend and sister in Christ – bless you!
Sandra- the photo is absolutely gorgeous– your farm must just be so spectacular in springtime. Do you have plans to visit your beautiful beach place this summer?
Xoxo
Vicki
