Day Two Hundred Sixty One 2011

Here as we move into the shadows of autumn
The night that brings the morning of spring
Come to us, Lord of Harvest
Teach us to be thankful for the gifts you bring us ..."

Day Two Hundred Sixty 2011

Grand daughter Shelby got her hair cut Friday and the hairdresser braided her hair. Doesn’t she look cute? I think so, not that I’m prejudiced or anything.

Day Two Hundred Fifty Nine 2011

Morning Glories are a sure sign of Fall and are most definitely a cool weather bloom. I had never noticed the star shape the petals make until now. These seem to glow in the center, as though they contain their own inner light. I can imagine you could hear a tiny chorus of angels singing if you put your ear close enough.  Maybe that’s why they’re called Morning Glories.

Day Two Hundred Fifty Eight 2011

Grandson Elijah drew this picture of his family for his mom and dad yesterday after school and wrote his name at the top.  He was so proud of it and should be, because not only has his drawing improved but so has writing his name. He is in kindergarten this year, learning so many new things, and he’s making great progress. Way to go, Elijah! I’m so proud of you!
