Tell Me a Story Now: Grandpa Thatcher
http://tellmeastorynow.blogspot.com/2009/05/grandpa-thatcher.html
Tell Me a Story Now. Friday, May 15, 2009. Okay, so previous posts have been about my mother's parents/steparent. Now we turn to my dad's side. I don't think he was a very happy man. He was nice enough to us kids and to my parents, but just seemed withdrawn and unhappy. He wasn't particularly nurturing in raising them. He was a stern disciplinarian, and sometimes abusive from what I understand. I don't think I ever saw Bepaw cry either. May 28, 2009 at 2:34 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Tell Me a Story Now: November 2008
http://tellmeastorynow.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Tell Me a Story Now. Tuesday, November 25, 2008. Thanksgiving when I was little was very much a family affair. So Thanksgiving was a huge deal. There was six in our family, six in my Aunt Helen’s family, Uncle Charles, Grandma, “Aunt” Theda’s family, “Uncle” Junior, “Nana and Grandpa” Sutton and some others I can’t remember. I think that made about 25 – 30 of us most years. Mashed Potatoes and Gravy. I’m sure there was more, but that is all I can remember. I remember once getting sick on Thanksgiving....

Tell Me a Story Now: February 2009

Tell Me a Story Now. Thursday, February 26, 2009. As you have probably realized by now, if you've been following my blog, Osborne Neighborhood Church was a big part of my life as a kid. Osborne was a great church to grow up in. It was comprised of many young families with kids about the same age. Also many seasoned Christian saints who had been missionaries or in other types of ministry. We were surrounded by lots of people who invested time and effort to minister to all of the children and y...We had wo...

Tell Me a Story Now: Mom
http://tellmeastorynow.blogspot.com/2009/06/mom.html
Tell Me a Story Now. Monday, June 8, 2009. My mom is hard to describe. She was different things to different people. My sisters and I always joke that we had "different mothers." I suppose that would be true in any family. Each one has his/her own unique relationship with another, and sees the other in a way uniquely his/hers. She was creative as well. She always made our halloween costumes. No store bought costumes for us! Like I said, she was creative! She had a wonderful sense of humor. That is so...

Tell Me a Story Now: Simplicity
http://tellmeastorynow.blogspot.com/2009/07/simplicity.html
Tell Me a Story Now. Monday, July 27, 2009. Sometimes when I watch kids today and all the electronic toys they have, I often wonder what they would do if they had none of that. When I was growing up, we had great imaginations, and played a lot of "pretend" play. We would put on "talent" shows, and pretend we had amazing costumes, fashioned out of blades of grass (it was "pretend" after all! Usually the talent was singing (something we knew a lot about) or tap dancing (something we knew NOTHING about)!

For the earth will be filled with knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea." Habakkuk 2:14. Friday, September 19, 2008. Susan and the team just finished their first week of school. They shared messages from our theme verse, Isaiah 62: 10-12, during this time:. 10 Go through, go through the gates;. Prepare the way for the people;. Build up, build up the highway;. Clear it of stones;. Lift up a signal over the peoples. 11 Behold, the Lord has proclaimed. To the end of the earth:.

For the earth will be filled with knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea." Habakkuk 2:14. Tuesday, October 13, 2009. For now the plan is that I will be here until December. There are several options I'll have at that point and I'm still praying about what that will mean. The CDTS will be taking a year off of the school, so we don't start until January 2011. However, we do have a China trip planned for March or April. Anyone wanna join? There's room for you! Fair To Hope Blog Tour.

Tell Me a Story Now: March 2009

Tell Me a Story Now. Monday, March 30, 2009. Arlene - My First Best Friend. Arlene was my first best friend. We became best friends on the day we met, I suppose. We played together and never had a quarrel as far as I can remember. We weren't in the same class after Kindergarten, but in Kindergarten we had a splendid time! Me: Do you like cheese? Me: You're a dirty Japanese. My mom, rightfully so, was horrified! That was my first lesson in prejudice, and one I never forgot. Sunday, March 29, 2009. When I ...
