When Morning Glory Bloom by
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Cynthia spends her days diving into words, worship, and wonder and celebrating 40 years of marriage, three grown children, and five outrageously adorable grandchildren. One of her greatest joys is helping other writers grow in their craft. To that end, she served as the assistant director and a faculty member of the Quad Cities Christian Writers Conference, has served as worship and devotions staff for the Write-to-Publish conference, and teaches at other conferences as opportunities arise. She speaks to women’s groups, at mother-daughter banquets, and for women’s refresher days and retreats. It is her delight to serve on her church’s worship team. Rather than “busy,” she likes the term “active.”
For 33 years, Cynthia wrote and produced the radio broadcast The Heartbeat of the Home. The scripted radio drama/devotional broadcast aired on as many as 50 radio stations and two cable/digital television stations over the years. Cynthia was the editor of the ministry’s Backyard Friends magazine, a twenty-page, twice annual publication that reached 5,000 homes, churches, and parachurch outreaches.

PomPom & Circumstance
Today is my day for posting. I want to thank Madame Samm @ Sew we quilt for putting this together and our wonderful cheerleader Thearica @ Pigtales and Quilts who cheered us on and made sure we were on task.
This week we are shaking our pom poms because our baby graduates...boo hoo.
Things as we know them will be changing greatly. Never thought I'd see this day come so quickly.
But I know that isn't why you are visiting my blog today...you want to see what I made for the blog hop...
Well, I started by pulling out many craft supplies that I had on hand and only bought my pompom makers for this project....Yeah Me!
First of course I made my pompoms....
 |
| 4 of them to be exact |
(check out my pompom tutorial here)
Then I just built from there...painted stick and Styrofoam ball.
 |
| eyes, beak and hat followed with craft foam board |
And this is what my kitchen looked like when I was done with my creating session....
So what exactly did I create???? a pompom owl graduate topiary
He had to find a home so I decided to he needed to replace this scene....
definitely time to replace the snowmen; I needed something new to look at for awhile.
 |
| The wise-owl is among us |
 |
| found some other graduation decorations to add to the wise owl |
Hope you enjoyed visiting my post. Thanks again for visiting and be sure to visit the other blogs on this tour today...

This is Our Time with giveaway
This movie couldn't come out at a better time...only a month from graduation day for many, college and High School seniors. Though the movie is presented around college graduation I think High School seniors could benefit from the message just the same. I watched the movie with my senior daughter and I'm passing it on to my college daughter who will graduate in 2014. The message is wonderful and inspiring: You are where God wants you at this present time. Graduates need encouragement as they seek to do what they feel God is calling them to do or as they sort out what direction they feel the Lord leading. It's a hard decision and some have an easier time finding their place in life that others as is presented in this movie. Excellent movie highly recommend High Schoolers and college bound students alike to watch the movie. Very family approved, however, younger ones may not be as thrilled with the message as it is geared toward Doing what God calls you to do upon graduation.
About This Is Our Time
The movie tells the
interwoven stories of Luke (T.J. Dalrymple) and Alé (Erin Bethea), who
marry right after school and move to India to serve as missionaries for
Embrace A Village, a ministry that cares for those afflicted with
leprosy and their families; aspiring financier Catherine (Kate Cobb),
who joins a prestigious financial institution determined to make an
impact on corporate America; Ryder (Matthew Florida), who lands an
impressive job in social media and can’t wait to use the powerful medium
for a greater good; and Ethan (Shawn-Caulin Young,) seemingly the odd
man out, who struggles to find his God-given-purpose and feels sidelined
by God.
“What they all come to learn is that it never really was their time,” Arnold said. “It always was, always is, God’s time.”
