Pic of the day;
For today…
We had a great time, I was nervous, but I did finally hit my
stride and enjoyed the time. No video,
sorry. We old folk don’t exactly know how
to do that stuff. LOL
I started my session with how I think we men
have pushed too much of our responsibilities about home and church on the
ladies. Our SS teachers are mostly
women. As a matter of fact the seniors activities are directed by women. I was asked to speak here today, by a sweet
lady. If money is to be raised, the women
do it. Most churches are paid for by the
efforts of the ladies. Most, if not all,
are NEVER paid.
I wove that into our homes and what the Mothers
mean to a home. I said, “I had a great daddy, but I know that my mama raised
me.”
I ended with the poem by Foss The House by the
side of the Road and the one “It takes a heap O Living In a House to make a
Home” by Edgar Guest.
Picture for today is above.
Everyone seemed to have a good time. Thanks for stopping by.

Well done and many congratulations. I wish I was there to hear you; (and share a beer afterwards).
God bless.
Congratulations, Jack (and Sherry)! You make a good point about gender roles; even our Pastor and a few others I know are women.
I join Victor in wishing I was there!
Jack, YOU LOOK GREAT!!! And the drawing is lovely, reminds me of days gone by. So happy to see y'all back on here, I will be checking back to see if I missed a report from Pennsylvania. Warm hugs to all, love from Chobee, Glenda
Looks like you did a GREAT job. Wish they would talk more about Mother's on Mother's Day - lol.
The drawing looks great dad.
So glad everything went well! I think you've done that enough times that now you are a pro at it! Good for you giving all of us women those kind thoughts!
I was talking with my daughters after we went to lunch two weeks ago...I said I do not know who ever said women were the weaker sex, but it sure is not this group right here. I am proud of how strong and brave my girls have been. (Thank you mommy, for making me strong) Oh my daughter Liz said it was some man who made that quote up about women. Sorry boys, she may be right. Lost my SIL this past Sunday. Brother married her 63 years ago. She did raise their 3 daughters, while he was always in service , when she could not follow. Did a fine job also. Thanks for giving us women credit for most of the child rearing. Blessings, hug your sweetie, xoxo, Susie
You are looking good!! Yes, the world would very quickly fall apart without women, no doubt about it.
I love the pic and you're looking marvelous! Yep, us women rule the world! Ha! However, I do like think we truly have a partnership with the men...atleast here in our house we try. I'm sure you gave a great talk! Have a good week Jack!
Looks like you still got it Jack.

Bro. Jack, I am so thankful for men and women of God like you and your wife who, everywhere you go, bring light and love. I thank the Lord that even when you could sit back and let the young folks do it all...you still are fruitful in the Kingdom, blessing the folks with the talent God has given you. Here's a verse for you....
This is the Lord speaking in Isaiah 46:4...And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar (gray) hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.
