Lily Grace Does the Tuesday 4 Meme

 

Tuesday 4


What Are You Doing Lately?



Note from our friend Annie over at Cottage By The Sea, who is our weekly hostess with the mostest!

"Welcome. I am still not back to normal but, I am trying.. here are this week's questions. As always they are in memory of Toni Taddeo."

We are thankful to Annie for putting this together for us each week, and hope that she is feeling better.  

Mommie said I could do the questions this week since I haven't had a post in a little while.  So here we go...Mommie said she would help me with the answers because I may not understand all of the questions very well.


1. Reading anything good lately? How about magazines? Do you buy any?
Well, since this is Lily Grace talking, here's something I was reading to my friends today:
"Children's Letters to God", (The New Collection)
Compiled by Stuart Hample and Eric Marshall, Illustrated by Tom Bloom
Workman Publishing, New York.  
I thought you might like to see a few examples of the letters the children wrote to God:





Aren't those great?  Mommie said she hasn't been doing much reading lately, except for her Bible and daily devotions, and all of your blogs.  The only magazine she still gets is "Better Homes and Gardens", but she said she will probably drop that with the next renewal because magazines just have too many advertisements and not enough good stuff to look at anymore.


2. Do you belong to any clubs, societies, or do you meet with friends regularly to chat?

I meet with my special friends every day. We talk about Jesus, we have tea and cookies, and we sing lots of songs like "This Little Light of Mine", "Jesus Loves Me", "If You're Happy and You Know it, Clap your Hands"...Stuff like that.

Oh, and my identical cousin Tracie and her Mommie, My Auntie Debbi, sent me a wonderful little package in the mail yesterday! It was so much fun to hear from her and get something in the mail. We also "talk"  to each other in emails quite often.  


Look at this fun envelope, with all kinds of stickers and writing and stuff. We have so much fun!

And these are the cute things Tracie sent me.

Mommie's answer to this question is that she belongs to her church, and the ladies' group in the church that meets once a month for fellowship and to pray for and work on special outreach projects, and also she belongs to the Women's Bible Study, that will start back up in September.  Mommie said when she was younger she used to participate in a lot more things, but now that she is retired, she doesn't like to do so many different things. She enjoys retirement! And she enjoys blogging and meeting blogging friends to "chat" here every day!

3. Where are you from originally and if you moved why did you move?

Well, I originally lived in Charleston, SC, with my Auntie Debbie and identical cousin Tracie. They discovered me at a special place, and wanted to share me with a special friend, my Mommie Pamela. So they wrapped me up in a very special package, and the mailman delivered me right to Mommie's front door!  She was so excited to find me there, and she fell in love with me and decided that I was so wonderful that I needed to write my own stories here on this blog!   Here is a link to my very first adventure!

Mommie says that she was born in Pennsylvania, but moved to Florida when she was almost 6 years old, and started first grade in Florida. She grew up there and then when she got married she and my Daddy moved to many different places where he was a preacher and a teacher and stuff.  Anyway, now they are retired and live in Florida again! The end.

4. Do you like a good Western Movie? Who was your favorite movie/TV Cowboy?
Uh Oh! I do not think I have ever seen a good western movie, nor do I know any tv cowboys.  Mommie hasn't shared any of those with me yet, but she says we will talk about it later.

Mommie used to love to watch Roy Rogers and Dale Evans when she was little, and Bonanza, and lots of other westerns, and she loved John Wayne movies and lots of other westerns.  Anyone growing up in the 50's and 60's probably watched a lot of westerns because they were very popular.  

Well, I guess that's all folks!  I hope you enjoyed reading our answers! Now we will come and visit you and read your answers too!

  1. Hi Lily Grace! What a great job you've done answering these questions! I'm laughing out loud at the excerpts you've shared from Children's Letters to God. That sounds like a perfect Christmas gift for my Pastor. Maybe one of these days, you'll see a horse to sit on and play Western. Another adventure!

    1. Good Morning Miss Myra! I am so happy you came over here to visit with me. Thank you for liking my little post about the book...wasn't that a fun story? Oh, I bet your Pastor would LOVE a copy of that! And yes, I would love to see a real live horse up close some day and be able to sit on it. Sometimes we see them in the fields when we take rides, but I've never been able to get close. I think it would be fun to be a cowgirl! That WOULD be quite the adventure! Thank you again for visiting. Love, Lily Grace xoxoxoxo

  4. Hi, Miss Lily Grace! Oh, I simply must order that book for my youngest grandchildren. So glad you shared it with us today, or I wouldn't have been aware that such a beautiful book existed. And isn't it wonderful to receive unexpected gifts? I know you were thrilled, little one. May God continue to bless your Mommie and Daddy, and help you to write more posts for all of us to enjoy!

    1. Thank you Miss Martha Jane! Oh yes, I think your younger granddaughters would like that little book. I hope you can still find a copy. Mommie said this one has a "copyright" from 1991, so it is a little bit old! And yes, it IS wonderful to get unexpected gifts in the mail. I was so excited! My friend Tracie sends me little presents every so often. I told Mommie we needed to send HER something sometime soon. So maybe we will. Thank you again for visiting, and I hope you have a happy day today. Love, Lily Grace xoxoxoxo

    1. Thank you, Miss Lori! I am glad you came to visit me and that you like my little book about Children's Letters to God. I thought it was a fun book, 'cause I think about things like that too and have often wondered what God's answers might be. I hope you have a great day too. Mommie said you are a teacher. Are you getting ready for school now? The kids here in our town went back to school this week! I wish I could go to school too. Mommie said she would just "home-school" me. I guess that is okay, but I'd really like to go to a real school someday. I hope you have a good year at school and that you have really nice pupils. Bye Bye for now. Love, Lily Grace

  6. hi there my bestest friend Lily Grace!! I sure love seeing your pictures on here and seeing with your books. I love books too. Im so happy you got your package in the mail, I love to send stuff!! Tansy helped me mail it because she's older and knows EVERYTHING, HA HA. I like seeing pictures of you with your friends too. We have a big shelf UP HIGH here where a bunch of those ladies live. Mommie said they are the "Lofty Ladies", they keep to themselves. Not too friendly to me and Amybelle but that's ok. They are very fancy ladies with big hats and lacey ruffles and big long old fashioned dresses and they don't dress anything AT ALL like you and me and Tansy and Amybelle. They talk different too. Sometimes I wave at them, they live up on a real high shelf. I'm glad the old fashioned ladies where you live are nice to you, and want to be friends! I will ALWAYS BE YOUR FRIEND forever and ever! Love, Tracie
