Why am I blogging?

My daughter's smile is the lovely one you see above! I love to see people smile! Maybe that is why ...I like to capture smiles or snapshots of things that make others smile with my camera. I know we can't go through every minute of life with a smile but I hope that even when life is hard we can have a peace that others will notice and desire. My blog initially started as a way to honor my mom and her great outlook on life. She died in May 2010 from cancer. I don't think I can ever due justice to her life but I hope I can live my life in a way that would make her proud. The one other great privilege I have had is to be Carol Hensley Singletary's mother. She was our only child and she died suddenly on Feb .27, 2013. She was 19 years old. Her zest for life, her smile and her loving personna is missed by many, but none more than by her husband of just 6 months, Cooper. We carry on by grace and faith in God, and will look for any means to smile while we are left here on this earth for some reason by God. What I would give just to see the beautiful smile of my mom and daughter again! I know without a doubt I will someday, but until then I am going to try and praise my God and King in the life's good days and through life's pains. And i'm sharing here ...in hopes that you will smile with me. judy!

Meanings of the name CAROL

Today I found a little bookmarker that I had in a book at one time. It was titled Meaning of the name Carol.... it is from the Latin root of Charles and is a feminine form of Carl or Charles. And two other definitions are strong and womanly.  

Then it listens about 10 characteristics of the name Carol:
1. She will do nothing but her best, 
2.  Has dignity and all she does,
3. Has an appetite for life,
4. Takes time for others and herself,
5.Is respectful and loyal,
6. Likes to dazzle others,
7. A highly religious woman,
8.Gentle and shy,
9. The bigger the adventure , the better! 

Another set of definitions of the name Carol include the following:
Emotional spectrum "be happy" is the key ,
Personal Integrity: she will tell the truth even if it hurts,
Personality: optimism is the best word that would describe her,
Relationships: she gives you a lot but expect some back in return
Travel: unplanned trips are the most fun,
Career: she would make it in the movies because she is a 'natural'.
life/money: if there is a way to make money Carol is all for it.
This sounds more like Cooper. LOL

I think many of these descriptions fit my Carol very well (maybe we should get Cooper's take on this too)?

The only thing they forgot is has a BIG SMILE on her face, all the time!
