Do not be afraid...

to show your affection...

be warm and tender, thoughtful and affectionate...

love is more than money...

and a kind word will give you more pleasure than a present...


Love and warmest wishes to all of you, my dear and kind friends...Enjoy your upcoming weekend!

A little prayer for you today. . .

May the raindrops fall lightly on your brow...

May the soft winds freshen your spirit...

May the sunshine brighten your heart...

May the burdens of the day rest lightly upon you...

And may God enfold you in the mantle of His love!

It is the small things that bring the greatest pleasure in this beautiful world...

a hot cup of coffee in a favorite china cup~

the soft flutter of a hummingbird's wings in my garden~

"Let gratitude be the pillow upon which you kneel to say your prayers."~Maya Angelou

Being thankful today for all the "small" things that bring so much happiness to our lives~God bless you today and always!

It is so hot. . .

even the little birds are not finding a respite. . .

As I water my flowers and grass each day,

the little birds flock around my house and sprinkler looking for some cool refreshment.

Even though I have a bird bath and a pond, they do not seem to be enough in this oppressive heat.

Praying for some cooling showers here in Texas. . .Hope this note finds you, my friends, able to stay cool as you enjoy your summer days.

"Faith is the bird that feels the light when the dawn is still dark."~Tagore

A hint of heaven~

Some people,

like angels,

leave a hint of heaven

wherever they go!

I am feeling thankful today for all of the angels God has placed in my path over these past 60 years of my life!!
