Hmmm!! what can I say about these two kids! They are my niece April and my nephew Cory! I have spent the years watching these two grow, all the while loving every minute of it. They fill me with a pride that is much like a mother's pride! But I think they already know that!!!
Drinking From My Saucer
I've never made a fortune, and it's surely too late now,
But I don't worry 'bout that much, I'm happy anyhow.
As I go on life's journey, reaping better than I sowed;
I'm drinking from my saucer 'cause my cup has overflowed.
I don't have lots of riches, and sometimes the going's tough;
But there are kids who love me and that makes me rich enough.
I thank God for His blessings and the mercies He's bestowed;
I'm drinking from my saucer 'cause my cup has overflowed.
I remember bad times when my faith got awfully thin,
But all at once the dark clouds broke and sunshine poured right in.
So Lord, don't let me gripe about the tough rows that I hoed,
I'm drinking from my saucer 'cause my cup has overflowed.
And if God gives me courage when the way grows steep and rough,
I'll want no other blessings, I'm already blessed enough.
And may I always stop to help another bear his load;
We'll both drink from our saucers 'cause our cups have overflowed.
