My father, Dave Robert Shepard Sr., died on either December 30th or December 31st, depending on what time zone you were in. I received the call on the 30th at 11:30PM in Los Angeles, but the caller, positioned in Detroit, was two hours deep into the 31st. He was dead at 62 years old. Small cell…
In January, we asked a small group of pinners to test a new look designed to make discovering things on Pinterest easier. Since then, we’ve talked to some of these folks, analyzed their feedback, and made a few changes.
Today, we’re thrilled to start sharing the new look with everyone. You…
At last night’s Screen Actors Guild Awards, Claire Danes told E! News that her infant son Cyrus (real name) is “getting fat.” “He’s getting rolls … thank goodness they’ve arrived.”
Look, I know that fat babies are healthy babies, but you really gotta be careful or you’ll end up with a Harper Beckham situation on your hands. No one has seen her in months because Victoria can’t pick her up anymore, and she had to go back to carrying handbags as accessories.
HILARIOUS!!!
2013 is going to be quite a year.
I’d say let’s hope it’ll be an improvement on 2012, but I know better. Kate Middleton’s pregnant. Jessica Simpson’s pregnant.
And now Kim Kardashian is pregnant with Kanye West’s child.
God help us all.
Happy New Year.
My First Christmas In Heaven
I see countless Christmas trees
Around the world below
With tiny lights, like Heaven’s stars
Reflecting in the snow.
The sight is so spectacular,
Please wipe away the tear.
For I am spending Christmas
With Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs
That people hold so dear,
But the sounds of music can’t compare
With the Christmas choir up here.
I have no words to tell you,
The joy their voices bring.
For it is beyond description
To hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me,
I see the pain inside your heart;
But I am not so far away,
We really aren’t apart.
So be happy for me, dear ones,
You know I hold you dear
And be glad I’m spending Christmas
With Jesus Christ this year.
I sent you each a special gift,
From my heavenly home above,
I sent you each a memory
Of my undying love.
After all, love is a precious gift
More precious than pure gold;
It was always most important
In the stories Jesus told.
Please love and keep each other,
As my Father said to do.
For I can’t count the blessings
Or love he has for each of you.
So have a Merry Christmas
And wipe away the tear
Remember I’m spending Christmas
With Jesus Christ this year.
