Thanks for clicking!!! I am so glad you are here and I hope that you stay awhile! My blog is just an extension of my life and while you are here you may read about my travels, my family, see pictures of my teapot collection or just basically get a glimpse into my life. It is not always exciting but it is me and I love to find out what others think about what I am doing and writing about!
One of the best things I have started on my blog is my Comments for a Cause ! Every month I choose a different charity to donate to. You can view which one is the current one on the upper right column. For each legitimate comment that month I will donate 50 cents to that cause. It has been a really great thing to do and I am happy to honor a lot of different “causes” so please comment away!
Please feel free to sign up for an email notification for my posts, subscribe by RSS feed, follow me on Twitter or Pinterest and comment as often as you want to!!! I love to make new bloggy friends and count it a joy to be able to share my adventures with you!
Peace and Blessings!

My brother passed away in Sept. at that time there was an email going around about “If God Had Adds”( It’s just life) I sent it to all of my family membert that didn’t know my brother very well. I have just found his son and I want to send it to him but I can’t figure out how. Can you help me.

Beth Ann, thank you for your response and good wishes. But the very first thing I saw on your blog, was a taco, which I consider a sandwich! lol. I am happy to inform you that I have subscribed to your blog, and I’m looking forward to reading your entries. By the way, my wife’s name is Beth Ann too, though the Ann part is and was seldom used. I only remember her late mother calling her that.
Have yourself a magnificent day. You can do it!
Jack, Thanks for the sweet comments and for getting the email subscription to my blog. I don’t have as deep thoughts or postings as you most likely but hey—it is me!!! I am loving meeting new folks via blogs and I love your offerings every day! I have shared many with my husband and he likes them too! I love using my middle name now—makes me feel all Southern or something!!! Thanks again for stopping by and commenting!!! You have yourself a super day!
Hi Beth! I enjoy reading your blog. I am glad to have found it

Hey, thanks for stopping over from Feeling Beachie!!! Glad to meet you!!! Will check out your blog for sure! Have a great day!
I’m going to have to check out the “things that make you happy” page.
I probably need to add a bunch more things to my Things that Make Me Happy page!!!
Beth Ann,
I think it is great that you are supporting the Down’s Association. I have been a speech/language pathologist or special needs teacher for the past 23 years. Some of my favorite students have had Down Syndrome. I have some great stories…. Thank you!
Randi
Randi—thank you SO much for your kind words and comments!!! That means a lot to me to hear it from YOU! I have been majorly surprised by the outpouring of love and support that I have gotten from siblings, moms, dads, aunts and uncles and others who have loved ones with Down Syndrome. Of course I have my own personal reason for supporting NDSS (one Carlton Scott Chiles!!) but it is so neat to see how many people have been touched and moved enough to comment. All the while I am ticking away the count for how many comments will go for Comments for a Cause this month! It may break the bank!!! But that is all good! Thanks again, Randi!!! I am so happy you stopped by!!! Hope all is well!
Hi Beth Ann, so nice to meet you! I want to send you my sincere thanks for leaving such encouraging comments on my posts at My 3 Little Birds. I am always so happy to see that you’ve visited. I wish I had more time to comment on blogs…but I just wanted to let you know that you are appreciated!

I absolutely love the idea of commenting for a cause! Found your blog throughm Kathryn McCullough’s blog — so glad I did.
Well I am so glad you found me and now I have found you!!! Thanks so much for stopping by and taking the time to comment. It has been such a neat thing to be able to donate to really great charities over the past year. The plus side is that I have met great folks like you and Kathy!!! Thanks again!
