Take it away Katie.....
Hi Pam! Thank you so much for having me. When I think about Treasures, there are so many things that come to mind. My family, my Bible, my church. It can be hard to narrow down and focus on a single treasure! However, often times it’s especially easy to focus on treasuring my children, so that’s where I’ve decided to go today.
We can get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life, and this causes us to take certain relationships for granted. It might be children or parents, your spouse, or your siblings. It could be any relationship at all! Sadly, it often isn’t until one of those people leaves us for Heaven, we realize how our hearts ache for more time to treasure them.Frequently, I have to make an effort to show my children how I treasure them—because one never knows when we won’t have that relationship to nurture anymore. For me that means putting down the computer; turning off the internet; setting aside the cleaning for a little while. More reading storybooks, playing patty cake with the baby, and going outside for a game of catch.
There are so many things I treasure, but today I am happy for the treasures of my children.
Wow...what a lovely post, Katie and cute kiddos! Thanks for sharing.
KATIE CLARK started
reading fantastical stories in grade school and her love for books never died.
Today she reads in all genres; her only requirement is an awesome story! She
writes inspirational romance for adults as well as young adult speculative
fiction, including her YA supernatural novel, Shadowed Eden, and The
Enslaved Series. You can connect with her at her website, on Facebook,
or on Twitter. Her latest book, The Rejected Princess is available now at Amazon in Print and for Kindle and directly from Pelican Book Group!
Well Friends, I hope you enjoyed today's post and take a few extra moments today to treasure your loved ones...especially your children. And, I hope you join me each week for Tuesday Treasures, Thursday Thoughts and Saturday Spotlight.
Until next time, take care and God bless.

Hi Katie,
Thanks for sharing your pictures! Your kids are so cute. I can't wait for your upcoming release.
Thanks so much Barbara!
Thanks for hosting me, Pam!
You are so right, Katie! When my daughter calls me about watching my grandson, unless I have a firm commitment I can't back out on, I always say yes. We have to treasure these moments!
I agree. My husband, children and grandchildren are my true treasures. Everything else is secondary.
Beautiful girls! Yes, cherish every moment because it goes by way too fast. My youngest graduates from high school in a couple of months. I teach first grade and the other day I noticed a book I had in my classroom was from my son's kindergarten teacher. I choked up right there. It still feels like yesterday.
