Blogging for novices

Here is a little information for those of you new to the world of blogging. The entries appear on the page from newest to oldest. So if you missed some entries, you would want to scroll down on your screen however far back you need to go to catch up and read the entries in reverse order. (you can tell this by the dates and times of the entry)

As the blog goes on day by day into this journey, there will be too many entries to display on one page. You can find old entries by looking to the right of your screen in the sidebar. By clicking on the entry title, the month, or eventually, the year, you will be able to go back and read any entry that has ever been made on our blog.

In order to leave a comment, which is an excellent way to encourage Joy and Greg, you just look to the bottom of each entry where it tells you the number of comments left for that entry. You put your cursor on that phrase "_ comments" and click it with your mouse. It will direct you to the page where you can write your message. You may have to create yourself a Google username and password to be eligible, but there is an obvious place to click to do that and it is simple and costs you nothing.

There are also links on the sidebar that you can explore. The one that is there just now is to the other site for James. I will not be posting there, but if Greg and Joy find that site easier to use when they take over the blog then they will have the option of using it. At which point you would know to go there instead.

Hope that helps! This is officially my last post for this morning. I thought it would be easier to break it into three separate entries so you can refer back to them as needed.

Joy,Greg and Sweet Baby James,
All of the teachers at SonKids have you in their prayers. Joy, we miss you and will continue to pray without ceasing. You know from being there that those ladies truly love you and will not stop praying. A very sweet lady once told me when her husband was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, "God made his body, God can heal his body."
We love you!!!
God Bless Your Family. . .

I LIVE IN TN AND DO KNOW KNOW YOU PERSONALLY, BUT IT SEEMS WE KNOW THE SAME GOD AND THAT MAKES US FAMILY. MY PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. ROMANS 8:28 HAS SEEN ME THROUGH SEVERAL REALLY BAD TIMES IN MY LIFE - IT SAYS, "ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD TO THEM THAT LOVE GOD, TO THEM WHO ARE CALLED ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE."
