The Pope in America

HELLO NICE PEOPLE,

                                   First I would like to say thanks to Sugar for some really nice "Welcome" tags for my sidebar.  She is so kind AND talented too.  I spent the weekend in front of the TV watching the Pope in America.  I am so proud of the Welcome that this country gave him.  I stuck with Fox News since Thursday when he arrived.  It was an amazing trip for the Holy Father and he was so well received.  His final words before he departed really said it all.  "God Bless America."

 

      I know I have told everyone in J-land about my Grandson who has Apraxia and about his little brother who I feel has a hard row to hoe.  But I have never mentioned my sons son.  His name is Angelo.  His whole life is taken up with sports.  He goes from baseball to football to street hockey and now to ice hockey.

ANGELO, HE'S A GOOD KID!!!!!!!

  1. I'd say he's a GREAT kid.  How many kids would give up their birthday gifts to help animals like that?  My grandkids wouldn't...believe me.  Good for him.  I'm glad you enjoyed the Pope's visit.
    Hugs, Joyce
