This moment…
A single photo – no words – capturing a moment from the week.
A simple, special, extraordinary moment.
A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.
Happy Saturday my dears!
Faith–A Vital, Living Force
“Faith is not a theological platitude. It is a fact of life. Faith can become the very wellspring of purposeful living. There is no more compelling motivation to worthwhile endeavor than the knowledge that we are children of God, the Creator of the universe, our all-wise Heavenly Father! God expects us to do something with our lives, and he will give us help when help is sought.” ~President Gordon B. Hinckley

This Moment.
A Saturday joy. A single photo – no words – capturing a moment from our world.
A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to savor and remember.

Happy Saturday my dears!
Flower Power
We took the babies to the Thanksgiving Point Tulip Festival for the first time in our livin’ lives. It was a lovely, lots of walking, flowery adventure. We saw pink tulips…
and crashing waterfalls,
yellow daffodils,
and secret gardens.
We saw orange and purple tulips…
and a cliff-dwelling mama owl.
We saw a sleepy baby Chompy…
and more tulips!
These were some of the really fancy ones–inside–entered in a competition for the most beautiful flower in the universe.
…although we did have a couple of our own…
and they were “blooming” cute.
Sorry, couldn’t help myself.
:]

Raggedy Babies
My clever mama made these pretty little Raggedy Ann dollies for Laurie and I when we were really young. Andy only got to hold the silly parakeet…poor guy. I like to think of these handmade treasures as relatively as old and we are. We, meaning Laurie and I, of course.
Look how well the old girl’s held up. Oh, sure–her elastic is a bit stretched out…
and her loopy hair is all pulled straight—don’t know why I did that…
her red felt nose got scratched off…somehow–don’t know why I did that either…
and she has a scar from an old, old wound.
But she still loves me–as you can see…
her socks stay up beautifully without elastics…
and she still manages to hold her head up straight and tall and keep a sweet smile on her face…
which is an amazing thing for a relic…
who’s the same age…
as me.

Happy Earth Day friends!
