It was a lovely Sunday afternoon. An afternoon that just begged for two people to take a much overdue ride. I must admit that I had always loved taking long rides in the country. Especially on a day when the sky was blue, and the grass that never really froze was still a somewhat shadeContinue reading “Ribbons In The Sky”

FROM MY HEART FRIDAY
When my children were little, I enjoyed every minute with them. I loved watching them grow, witnessing their, oh so different personalities, listening to their dreams and wishes, and experiencing their loving hearts. They were kind children who grew into even more compassionate adults. They were taught at a young age to be responsible, andContinue reading “FROM MY HEART FRIDAY”
STARRY NIGHT SATURDAY
Today was beautiful and tonight even better. I enjoy sitting on my front porch as the sun starts to descend; inching down, shadows, and shades of evening changing into the night. I think it is God’s way of easing us into the darkness. Then, suddenly, the thick inked sky comes to life with millions of shimmeringContinue reading “STARRY NIGHT SATURDAY”
IF I HAD KNOWN THEN WHAT I KNOW NOW
It is the day after Easter, and I am sitting at the dining room table sipping a cup of hot tea, thinking about the holiday weekend. Easter Sunday was everything I had hoped. Celebrating the resurrection of Christ, then spending the afternoon with my family around a table laden with delicious food, memories, laughter, andContinue reading “IF I HAD KNOWN THEN WHAT I KNOW NOW”

It’s seven-thirty in the morning, the weatherman assures a nice day. A warm day, after the clouds dissipate, and the yellow sun makes its appearance; not a bad forecast for February. Sixteen days ago, my sister had her massive heart attack. She was on life support for six days before her passing. Her funeral was six-daysContinue reading “A BEAUTIFUL DAY”
UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN
Today is February first. It’s a new day and a new month; however, I am thinking about the last day of January. A day filled with a spectrum of emotions. Early Thursday morning… Got up early, grabbed a cup of coffee, showered, got dressed, husband warmed the car, picked up the food for later, drove onContinue reading “UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN”
WELCOME HOME, AUNT EMMA
Skyler was my Great Grandson. He was born on July 1, 2016. He was a handsome baby boy with eyes that melted my heart. I remember holding him in my arms and falling in love. Twenty-nine days later, this precious little boy, made his journey to Heaven. He is missed beyond words. Welcome Home, AuntContinue reading “WELCOME HOME, AUNT EMMA”
MESMERIZING MONDAY
I am not ashamed to say that I am in love with life, all of it; the good, the bad, and the ugly. Each morning, when I get up, I thank God for giving me another day. A day to enjoy the beauty that surrounds me. A day to enjoy my loving husband. A day,Continue reading “MESMERIZING MONDAY”
