Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God. Then the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
Phil 4:6-7

Four Thumbs Up -- UP

.

I took the three youngest kids to see Up yesterday. I'm sure you have probably already heard about this movie -- I think it has surprised folks every where. It's a movie about love, and regret, and how dreams are good, but living everyday life with someone you love is even better. Interesting topics for an animated movie. I am hoping my kids took something away from the theater besides a belly full of popcorn and soda.

I'm certain you've also been told to bring a hanky (or grab a handful of scratchy napkins from the concession). I was a little surprised that they made me cry while I was still enjoying my popcorn. The crying is supposed to come at the end, when I'm all finished. Of course, I cried then, too.

  4. I'm a cryer too. This movie wasn't on my radar and you and others have now placed it there. I am always grateful for others taking the time to share a good tip. Thanks, Barbara! And your garden is a slice of heaven!
