Build Each Other Up

 I try to be ready when Dad gets a bright idea. 

We like to build things together.

We did a good job, don't ya think?

We may get some benches.

I like lower seats 

because I get pet more often.

We're also researching shade plants for the garden.

 

 

We may create some new walking paths or walls of greenery.

English gardens are so inspiring!

(But not as inspiring as English Bulldogs of course!)

What have you seen lately that took your breath away?

 

 

 

  

 

           

 

Did you look really close?

What have you had that's tasty?

 

 

Have you gone for some walks this month? 

See any bulldogs around town?

(That white dog below is not me!)

 

 Did you have some friends over? 

 

When you are out and about 

do you see things that remind you

of certain people?

Sometimes it's a color.

Sometimes it's an animal.

Sometimes it's a keepsake item.

Sometimes it's a food.

It's fun to remember good times with friends.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm glad Mom takes the time to snap a photo 

when these things cross her path.

Mom and Dad like to go to art sales, 

antique stores, and garage sales 

to get decorating ideas

and buy cool stuff.

 

              

 

For the record...

...it's also fun to just window shop.

 

Let's take a Moment to PAWS and notice A-DOOR-ABLE me.

 

Have you ever lost your direction?

Isn't it nice when you find it?

 Even though it always changes,
just keep trying to steer your ship
in the direction you feel is best.
Don't get pigeon holed into doing something
your gut says is wrong for you.

Look for 

and listen to

words of wisdom.

Drink them in.

Mom likes to
F.R.O.G.
(Fully Rely on God)
to stay on a safe course.

She just got involved in another 

volunteer job where there's a gavel.

Have you ever been overruled?

Not listened to?

Be respectful, but be brave and strong

and let your opinions and ideas be heard!

You are the only one who can figure out 

where you are supposed to be,

serve, live, love, and breathe.

Examine your unique self.

Go where you wanna go

and do whatcha wanna do.

Just go in peace

and love.

 If you end up somewhere you know you shouldn't be - get out!
 

In the same respects, 

if you are feeling gated off 

from your potential,

break out!

PAWS a Moment and think of your motives.

If you feel good about them, carry on!

I hope you have a safe and respectful 4th of July.

(I hope to sleep through the fireworks.)

May your summer naps be
free of lawn mowers,
leaf blowers,
and tree trimmers.
