JOY, GRATITUDE & CATNIP

Sparks/Awww Mondays

 

 

Cooper Murphy is all nipped out in this photo.

Dad Tom got some catnip plants on Caturday and gave the kittens some sprigs on Sunday. Cooper Murphy and Raleigh quickly took over the nip, and this was the result. Audrey waits in the background for a turn with the nip that would never come to pass.

The Spark is a rather simple one, but appropriate I think. The author, Karl Barth (1986-1968), was a Swiss Reformed theologian. Barth was featured on the cover of Time magazine on April 20, 1962. According to BibleHub, the “article highlighted Barth’s lifelong commitment to doctrinal clarity and moral courage. It covered his resistance to Nazi ideology in the 1930s, when he stood with the Confessing Church against state control of the gospel.” Additionally, “it touched on his monumental work, Church Dogmatics, which sought to set Christian teaching under the lordship of God’s self-disclosure.” 

Sparks is the creation of Annie from McGuffy’s Reader. It began as a blog hop, created by our friend. Annie stated when she began Sparks, “I believe we are meant to be lights in this world. If we allow our light to shine, we can see where we are going. It is then that we can begin to truly see each other clearly. Together, we can light up the entire world.”

Cooper Murphy and Audrey will be participating in the Awww Mondays blog hop hosted by Sandee at Comedy Plus. To join them there, click on the Awww Badge.

The Adventures of Periwinkle & Stinky

Tomorrow your two favorite tabbies, Periwinkle and Stinky, will be waiting for you to join them on their latest adventure. You’ll be able to find them at Friends Furever, as Periwinkle will be in charge of the itinerary. She always plans something fun, which means you do not want to miss the opportunity to join her and Stinky. I know they will be looking for you.

Our Angel Sawyer continues to live through these adventures as his alter-ego Stinky, and it would mean so much to Mom Sharon, Noelle and myself if you would continue to follow our two fun-loving, cartoon tabby cats.

Thanks for stopping in to see us today. We always appreciate your visits, comments and support.
