About Me

Gloria Brown: Northcentral Arkansas, United States; I'm a daughter. I'm a granddaughter. I'm a sister. I'm a cousin. I'm an aunt. I'm a friend. I'm a teacher. I'm a child of God. I love ridiculously sappy love stories. I tolerate popular comedy. Puppets crack me up. I absolutely hate spiders (nothing should have 8 legs, 2-4 are all you really need). I love to make desserts- banana pudding is my specialty. I love to sing. I love to read. I love science fiction but hate to admit it. I love to create things, either by hand or by computer. I love to just sit and be quiet. I love the dark, but I love the light as well. If I could be anything I wanted to be, I would be...

What's Playing on my iPod

When I was in college, one of our marching band shows showcased the music of Blood, Sweat, and Tears. I recently rediscovered my album and have been listening to it all the time. I really want to try to arrange a children's version of "Spinning Wheel." Wouldn't that be funny!

"Delight thyself also in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart."

Psalm 37:4

What I've Just Netflixed

I happened to find this title quite by accident. Songcatcher is set in the early 1900's in the Appalachians. On a trip to visit her sister who is starting a school in a rural area, a music professor discovers the beauty and undisturbed songs of the area. She begins collecting them for a song book to be published under her name and discovers the area has more to offer than just its music. Aidan Quinn and Janet McTeer star with Emmy Rossum (The Phantom of the Opera) making her debut. The music is beautiful and made me really miss my Grandma.

What I'm Reading Right Now

I ordered the first book in this series, The Maze Runner, based on a recommendation from Barnes & Noble. I started reading the first book and loved it, so I got the second book, and jumped right in. It's set in the future and follows the trials of several young men and a young woman in a post apocalyptic society, The young people have been chosen to be part of an experiment that will help the human race. Too bad the kids weren't told it's an experiment.

"Granny, you can't get a Dogwood tree. You have cats!"

Braden, age 4
Discussing the reasons Mom can't keep Dogwood trees alive.

You said, "Ask and you will receive, whatever you need."

You said, "Pray and I'll hear from Heaven, and I'll heal your land."

You said Your glory will fill the earth, like water the sea.

You said, "Lift up your eyes-

The harvest is here, the kingdom is near."

You said, "Ask and I'll give the nations to you."

O Lord, that's the cry of my heart.

Distant shores and the islands will see Your light as it rises on us.

Oh Lord, I ask for the nations.

Rueben Morgan (1998)
