Savoring Sweet Spring, What we have left of it!!

The past few days have been so precious. Everyone around here knows that our Spring days are numbered, but for now, they are wonderful!! I have spent every single minute that I have possibly been able to squeeze out, savoring the breeze, smelling the gardenias, clipping things from my garden and popping them in vases around the house.

I love watching new things pop out each day, a surprise of color everywhere I look.

Seasons are like that, bringing change, spreading colors that demand our attention, buds that hold things inside not yet revealed. Surprises that almost always involve some clean up once they have been enjoyed and usually never last long enough.

Yesterday, I had some special time wandering about in my little backyard garden with one of my G-Boys.

Moving from place to place. Shade to sun. Rocker to swing.

  1. Hi Pat,
    Thanks for stopping by Aroma of Joy. You have a great blog here (lots of fun personality!!). Your flowers are beautiful and I would love to just reach into the monitor and pick up that sweet little baby! LOL

    Have a great Memorial weekend…..

  2. Hi Pat,
    I am so glad you stopped by Quill Cottage and that you enjoyed your visit. What a precious grandbaby and you are correct, there is nothing like spending time with them. Mine will have his second Birthday party today and I am looking forward to spending time with him. Grandbabies are one of God’s best inventions!!!! Have a great weekend!

  3. Pat – I’m never sure where to leave my comment..

    Thank you so much for stopping by again and for your words of encouragement. Sometimes I think I am too honest and transparent, so it’s good to hear that it’s a positive thing. God is working mightily in my life right now and I’m really trying to get out of the way and let Him work.

    I appreciate you and I love going to the “pantyline” blog. I’ve only left a couple of comments because if I shared all my feelings I’d have to do it anonymously! ha

    Love,
    Sheryl
