Samantha, Andy, Lucinda

In this world of "Look at Me!"
I'm thankful, Lord, for what I see
In my three children, fully grown
Most unselfish strength they've shown
Not just in looks do they excell
But Grace in all things their lives tell
With hearts as big as any need
Always giving, never greed
I wonder how they came to be
Such special kids, to Pat and me

Letter to Editor, Kerrville Daily Times

To the many folks in our town who give their time to those less fortunate, whether they be people or our four-legged friends.

To volunteer is to share yourself
Not money, gifts or food
It's time well spent, not really missed
For someone else's good

At Freeman Fritts, a walk or pat
That says "You're not alone"
To cats and dogs whose only dream
Is to have a forever home

But there's a bonus to the giving
The tables turn, a lesson
When offering any time at all
You get back more in blessings
