I Love Chick-fil-A

If you know me at all, you know I <3 Chick-fil-A.
It's by far the best fast food establishment there is. Given the choice of any fast food, I would pick CFA (as I lovingly refer to it). I would even pick it over some sit down restaurants. The food is superb (and fresh, no frozen processed stuff), the service always exceeds my expectations, and they have the cow, who wouldn't love the cow??

In addition to all of the wonderful attributes, Chick-fil-A is a great company. They are closed on Sundays so employees can have the day off to go to church, spend time with their families, and relax. They have wonderful programs for the people that work there to excel and for children they have the WinShape Foundation that includes foster programs. Truett Cathy, the founder, is an upstanding, admirable, inspirational guy. He's written several books and I suggest them if you want a good read:
Eat Mor Chikin: Inspire More People, It's Better to Build Boys than Mend Men.

It's been "My Pleasure" writing about Chick-fil-A today, don't be surprised if I do it again in the near future, I <3 them!

nothing...ahhhh

Pretty much everyday, one of the first things out of Mady's mouth is "so, what are we doing today?" And normally, I give her the run down. But today, today was different, I thought to myself for a moment and said, "nothing". Her response, "so, where are we going?" I said, "nowhere".

And it was a lovely day of nothing...we don't have many of those around these parts but today we did and I enjoyed it. We went out for a run before it got too hot, played with lots of toys, painted all of our toenails, ate lunch, had naps, played more until daddy came home. And when daddy came home, he said it looked like a hurricane had hit all of the rooms but 1 bedroom.

True story, there were toys EVERYWHERE, bathrooms included. And I said, this is what happens when we stay home all day.

But what also happens when we stay home all day is that I can appreciate everything that I have right here in arm's reach. I LOVED every second of playing with my girls. I LOVED getting to lay out for 20 min while they napped. I LOVED feeling the sun beating on me and hearing the birds chirping.

God is so good. All the time.

I need to take my more to appreciate everything and thank God for everything He has given me.

Happy Birthday America!

Today is the Birthday of our wonderful country, The United States of America. Let's celebrate the USA!

Ridiculous! If your loyalty is to the entire world lady, go live somewhere else in the world.

Lady Liberty did not and does not welcome anyone here that wishes to change what our Founding Fathers envisioned 235 years ago. She is here to welcome people that want to EMBRACE the Founding Fathers' vision.

Do you have a flag? If you do, go pledge allegiance to it now. If you don't, get one...here
