God Save the Queen!

Picture from Google.
For those of you who didn't know, Scotland was recently (and for sometime) wanting to be an independent country and not part our the grand United Kingdom. This last Thursday they voted yes or no. And, glory be, the United Kingdom still includes our lovely Scotland the brave! Needless to say, I am very happy about it.

On another note of British-ness, isn't Prince Harry such a hero?

Picture from FaceBook.
"Last Sunday, 5-year-old Isabelle Nixon was having trouble seeing the stage during the closing ceremony of the Invictus Games -- an international competition for wounded, injured and sick members of the armed forces -- in London, England. Lucky for little Isabelle, Prince Harry, who launched the games, noticed how upset she was and came to the rescue, lifting her onto his shoulders and dancing with her while the Foo Fighters performed on stage.

"'He approached us and smiled at me and just literally picked her up and just started to dance so she could see the stage,' Isabelle's father, Adam, the captain of Britain's wheelchair basketball team, told the Daily Mail.

"Isabelle was unaware she was dancing with the 30-year-old royal, until her mother, Taryn, told her, 'You're dancing with Prince Harry."
"'When she realized who it was, she was lost for words. She just danced along to the Foo Fighters with him and hasn’t stopped smiling since," Adam said.
"Taryn told the outlet that the 5-year-old has since been exercising her bragging rights: 'Isabelle now says she’s a princess and tells all her friends she danced with "Uncle Harry."'"

Isn't that the sweetest thing?

Hullo there, friend! I am thrilled you are here. :)
Comments are always such a blessing.
Just remember Colosians 3:23–24: “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; … for ye serve the Lord Christ.”
To God be the Glory!
