Remembering my parents doing some crazy things, I have been reminded of the Love we grew up with. Oh how I miss them and find comfort in taking time to ponder about the past. I found myself giggling out loud today as I remembered some fun times we had as a family.
~~~Daddy chasing mama down the middle of the street all the way to the grocery store( 3 blocks away) and all of the neighborhood kids running right behind them laughing and skipping all the way!~~~

Gearing up for Spring
Oh how wonderful this morning is. Sunshine is peeking in the windows of my home bringing such a fantastic light show. I opened the blinds just enough as to have my room become a place where I could watch and listen as the day begins. Still chilly outside, and warm and cozy inside, Spring is just starting to slide in. I can feel it knocking at the earth and gearing up for the work ahead.
I long to get my hands in the dirt and smell that sweet smell. Working with the soil to bring beauty to my yard is a true treasure to me. I give my daddy the honor of that joy. He taught us in our lives that this work is good with the earth and most importantly good for the soul. I miss you daddy. This seemed to be "our" shared season.

THE BEAUTY OF LIGHT REFLECTIONS
Sunday morning as I came around the corner of my staircase I noticed that our home seemed to be glowing. What is this, I thought. Knowing that a treat was waiting for me to discover, I quickly finished the trek down the stairs, went straight to the front door and threw it opened. WOW! The light was even more brilliant outside than inside.
The sky was mostly filled with clouds of many shades of gray, white and very slight yellow. Then looking over to the south there I found an opening in them. Behind this was the sun trying to fill in the space of that opening with it most intense brightness. The earth seemed to be glowing GOLD. I stood in awe and soaked in it, as it quickly changed from this to an almost solemn soft hue of light gray.
Once again I was the recipient of one of God's masterpieces. May I suggest that we all look for the most simple things to see, hear, touch, or witness that will remind us everyday that we are children of the Master of ALL! ~~~

Art work of My Father
Looking at the world around me this day, I have found some extraordinary pieces or art.... The sky is a light gray with some slivers of blue. The air is crisp and wonderfully refreshing. I close my eyes and breathe what I shall call an ABSOLUTE CALMING & DELICIOUS breath of life, I heard the birds, the slight rustle of some leaves on the ground as I stepped out onto the cold sleeping lawn, and opening my eyes to view my back yard I witnessed a new portrait. My yard is waking from the winters sleep!
This is a day I have long awaited. I am beginning a journey. I am going to share my thoughts, feelings, adventures, and my life's journey with any or all who would like to read this.
This day has begun as most days do. Landen one of my grandbabies came in early this morning and my day began. I so love seeing him every morning, his mama works very hard and long so I have the privledge of caring for him for a few hours and then deliver him to the babysitter. My life is so full!
