Sometimes it’s nice to see shadows…

for a January morning…

Kickin’ it up
Dad had a birthday on the 9th and would have turned 103 years young…
thinking of Dad and celebrating by adding a little ‘kick’ to my soup!
Happy New Year!
I took this photo from my porch on the morning of December 31st, 2018. Though the morning’s greetings are more often than not cloudy and gray, I will remember that the sky, in all its colorful glory and brilliance, and the Creator who made it, are never far away….
Success!
Celebrating a success…Earlier in the year I had to divide my mother’s African Violets and I guess this is the evidence I needed to show me that I didn’t kill at least one of them. Not having much of a good track record with flowers and plants, these blooms are a relief for me to see. The other’s are doing well, but haven’t bloomed yet. I love that the purple violet bloomed first…purple was Mom’s favorite color…
Merry Christmas!
If not for Christmas Day
“If not for Christmas Day, our hearts would never beat with Love,
Nor know the pain that crushes hope is healed with Mercy’s touch.
If not for Christmas Day, the light would dim with every tear;
If not for Christmas Day, our strength would faint with ev’ry fear;
For ev’ry gift of grace You give, with joy we praise Your Name;
GLORIA! Sing, GLORIA, because of Christmas Day.”
