My precious Momma is 74 today. This picture is one of the last times she was in Nashville, her eyes were still bright, she could travel alone, hold conversations… and I took it all for granted. The emptiness I see now is gut wrenching… she still musters an “I love you” or an “I miss you” and it still means as much as it ever has but boy do I “miss” her… For any of you dealing with loved ones that have dementia, you’ll know exactly what I mean. I celebrate her today, even if she can’t-and I thank GOD every day that he hand picked this amazingly strong, rock of a woman to be my Mother. She has been one of my life’s greatest blessings… Her example of what a praying, God-fearing woman should be, has absolutely saved my life sometimes. I am certain of it. #happybirthdaymomma
I am one of those people that believes entertainment and politics shouldn’t mix. When I go to the movies to see my favorite actor, or go to a concert to enjoy some great music, I want to enjoy his or her’s art without it being convoluted by them telling me who I should or shouldn’t vote for. I get and respect that some artists feel the need to use their platforms to influence people-I just never have. With that said, I do see our country bitterly divided. Perhaps the most divided in my lifetime. It saddens me that we cannot find more common ground. God knows both sides of the aisle have their issues. That is why I think it is even more important to not believe the lies of the media. Edited clips, comments taken out of context to fit narratives, information presented as facts that are blatant lies are common place. Do not be a follower. Do not listen to your friends. Don’t even listen to your family! Whatever you do, don’t take what some talking head on TV says as the Gospel truth. My message is simple-do your own fact finding, do your own research, learn where candidates stand on issues, you might be surprised by what you find. One of the greatest liberties we have as Americans is WE THE PEOPLE get to choose who our leaders are. We have a voice!!! So vote your conscious, vote your heart, vote your convictions but vote knowing WHAT you’re voting for!! #democracy #election2024 #godblessamerica
My best buddy in the world turns 12 today… Hard to fathom where the time has gone, it just continues to fly. Dylan is a wonder to behold-his heart, his smile, his laugh, and his talents are simply magical. He is an old soul, advanced well beyond his years. Even if he weren’t mine, I would have to say there is something extraordinary about this young man and I could not be more proud of him. I love him so much my heart could burst and what an honor it is every day to be his Dad. Happy Birthday Dyllie, I love you!!! #happybirthday #12years #memories
