Thanks for sharing your birthday ...Happy Birthday! Thanks for sharing your birthday poem - a great way to use your gifting while also having some fun. Your next book could be titled "Poetry...one day a year! A collection." by Elaine Miller :) lol - I like the idea of celebrating our birth and blessing of life with a poem - I'll have to remember this in August of 2011. :) Enjoy...

So glad you're husband is/has coming home to you. My hubby & I are seldom separated for long (hrs at the most) but I can imagine how devastated I'd be w/out him. Thanks for the reminder that God gave me a wonderful jewel, and to treasure him even more. <br />cb<br />http://sunnebnkwrtr.blogspot.comCarolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08765332646987825952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-431604197337893046.post-49002024068297928702010-09-29T22:07:02.998-04:002010-09-29T22:07:02.998-04:00Dear Elaine, Thank you mentioning Widows Christian...Dear Elaine, Thank you mentioning Widows Christian Place today and all your kind words. Yes, cherish your husband, walk together in love and kindness, and know that when God takes either one of you home, there's new life ahead. Widowhood is a harsh land to walk through but the moments of beauty are breathtaking and God's grace is as lavish as the pain is deep. God bless you my sister in Christ and have a blessed reunion with your husband tomorrow! On Friday I will have the profound privilege of attending the wedding of a widow who reads my blog! Photos on Monday! Yay!Ferree Bowman Hardyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10739485535852107104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-431604197337893046.post-23767257004410983092010-09-29T18:08:00.884-04:002010-09-29T18:08:00.884-04:00Elaine,

Your words were both eloquent and precise - touching my heart and desires - I'll be more thankful when I pick those dirty socks up off the floor next to the couch or bed for now on.
