Oh Lord above accept this man
please wash away his sins--
It will be his first shower
in 66 years

Cute Harry...If a shower would do it most people would be clean occasionally..Praise God that it is a gift and all we have to do is accept it and invite Him into our heart..Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my work..Our gourds are beginning to look like fall..Sara
