September 2025
Over the years, we've always compared our family life to a wagon train heading west. Just as everyone had to do his part to get to Oregon years ago, so everyone in our family must do his/her part to make our journey through life successful. If somebody climbs in the wagon and lets the others do the work, we just don't make any progress. We all have to pull our weight and work together. Along the trail we find lots of pebbles that make for a smooth ride and some bigger rocks that jar us a little; we hit the occasional pothole that can slow us down. But if we purpose to search diligently, there are countless gold nuggets and precious gemstones along the way as well. This journal is an attempt to preserve some of those precious moments for our children, and our children's children, as together we travel this trail called life.

Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. Psalm 16:11

10-21-13 Sue’s Bad Day

by Sarah

One day Sue decided to climb a tree. Of course she didn’t know how to climb a tree so when she got half way up the tree she fell down. Below, there was a sidewalk and she landed on the sidewalk bottom first. Then she decided to go to the park. she walked on top of the monkey bars and fell down head first just as her best friend Kathy came walking up.

“What are you doing?” asked Kathy.

“I am having a bad, horrible, terrible day,” said Sue.

“Why don’t you play on the swings?” asked Kathy.

“Good idea,” said Sue. But when she swung really high she tried to do a parachute, but she landed on her bottom. “Ouch!” she yelled. “I’m going home to take a nap. Good bye.” But when she was walking away, she tripped and landed face first on the ground.  “This is the worst day in my life,” said Sue.

 

The End
