Pink Saturday -Including a puzzle and a birthday. . .

Today is Pink Saturday over at Beverly's - How Sweet The Sounds Blog.

Today is some one's birthday - the person I'm sort of show casing - for the Pinkies. We're supposed to talk about another person's blog on the Pink List.

I'm sure most of you know her. She's loved by all. She has a great blog that I'm sure most of you follow her. She comments to everyone.

These are her pictures - (hope it was okay my stealing them). So happy birthday friend.

Can y'all guess who it is?

Okay - she just went to a tea house with her God Child and friend.



This is her name - Sheila.



Yummies at the Tea House.



She had a visitor here from England.



She took her everywhere with her.



It's her birthday today.



Flowers to you Sheila.




And yes - girls LOVE chocolate.



Have a happy birthday.



Happy Birthday

Sheila The Quintessential Magpie!!!!!!!!!!!!
And I found out it is Spencer's birthday today too, over at Bellemere Cottage.




Happy Birthday to John Newton -

"The love I bear Christ is but a faint and feeble spark, but it is an emanation from himself: He kindled it and he keeps it alive; and because it is his work, I trust many waters shall not quench it." - John Newton

Anyone hear of John Newton? He was the Angry Sailor. Lived years ago. I read that book to my children when they were little.

He was a little boy when his mother died. His father raised him and forced him to work on a ship and be head of a slave trip. He was later captured and forced to work for the Navy.

He was a bad man. He hated himself. One day the ship he was on was in a horrible storm and was sinking he thought he was dying and when he didn't his conversion started.

Once he was saved - his whole life changed. He wrote a song. "Amazing Grace."

Cool huh?

It's also Amelia Earhart's birthday too.
