I have got a smile

Posted Saturday, February 7, 2009, at 5:16 PM

Just to show you I can smile, my family gives me the reason to smile, just wanted to share the pic.

They keep me on a even keel, don't let me get to big-headed if you will.

My girls are my joy, for whenever I doubt there is a higher power or I quit believing in miracles, I stare at the girls, for they are and will always be my miracles.

To my wife for having me with the past that I have, but then again, God took me the way I was.

Without these three, I have no ideal where I would be, yeah I do, in a grave and apart from the Lord for eternity.

Thank you God for sending these three to set me on the right path and to keep me on it.

Nice Looking Family.

That is a very nice sentiment. I would make sure your girls had a hard copy of the pic, with the writing, to have to remember one day. Time goes too quickly.

Wonderful family enjoy every day you have with your girls because they grow up so fast.

My wife has been making copies all week, I cherish everyday with them.

I am hoping , that if I can ever get into the ministry full time and work from home, I will have even more time.

That does look more like the jolly fellow I always see named Michael Bell.

But I must say I wonder, how does an ugly ole coot like you have such a good looking family? :)))

Just joking. I already knew the pretty wife gene was dominant over the ugly ole man gene.

Some folks say lucky,I prefer the word blessed.

michael, barry is great. He works at MTMC in Murfreesboro, it is a St. Thomas hospital. They are wonderful to their employees and the spirit there is so differant than the one( hospital) here. This hospital helps the poor and elderly, and they have devotions also.

You can feel the differance walking through th doors.

Well Mr Bell you can smile. See what cheer you bring when you do not have that scowl on your face. Why not put a cheerfull photo on your tag. Who knows, you might even like it.

MICHAEL that is awesome!! Love the hat.What a great picture i see the love of God in that smile.

Thanks, I got it for a late Christmas present, I always did like hats.

I guess I take some of the things going on to seriously, and I let it get to me.

The security in my salvation should and will always keep me smiling.

Great blog picture Michael and also of the family too. I always knew you had a smile there.Keep on with what you believe in. I know your family means a lot to you and you mean a lot to them. You old auntie has always loved you even tho you can get a little wild with your ideas sometimes, but I still love you just the same. KEEP ON SMILING!

Hi Lesa, long time since I've heard from you. Hows the family doing? In case you can't figure it out I'm nana's sister.
