Summer has gone and Fall is here.. Though soon the leaves are going to start falling, we still see the beauty and magnificence of our Lord! I cannot seem to get enough of the beauty around us. Each little creature that flutters by or each color that pops up, I am reminded of His power, His love-our wonderful Creator. Have a blessed first day of Fall!

After the intense editing and formatting my Kindle versions of the individual books in The Sunny Brook Trilogy, I am finally finished with the updates. Yay!!! It's been pretty grueling because formatting for Kindle and for print are very different. But God is good (if you know me- that's what I say a lot). So, to give myself a mental boost, I took my beloved camera and walked to the front yard. I love shooting anything- from the flowers to the birds and yes, even the weeds!! Here are just a few of the pics. I love Spring!!! I wish I had time to edit the rest but due to time constraints, I can't. Enjoy :) !

Today, the kids had to leave school early due to sleet and possible icy roads. It is going to get cold tonight- again! I am so ready for Spring and getting back to my exercise at the park. What about you? I hope that you are all staying safe and warm. Have a blessed day!!

Growing up, we learned all different sayings as part of our studies in school. One of them was "as white as snow". I have no idea why that came into my mind today but it was such fun to see the snow falling in its splendor down in the south. I know that there are so many people facing hardships due to the terrible snow conditions- especially up north. I pray that everyone stays safe and warm. Snow is beautiful but it is also dangerous. Praying for those who have a hard time staying warm. "As white as snow"-yes. Snow is white. It looks clean but nothing is cleaner that the blood of Jesus.  This brings to mind the words from the song, "Nothing but the blood". What can take away our sins? Nothing but the blood of Jesus...Then the part..."Oh, precious is the flow that makes me white as snow...nothing but the blood of Jesus."

Today, as I was going out to the porch, I caught a glimpse of this lovely house wren walking across the platform and I ran inside to get my camera. By the time I got back, I didn't see it immediately but soon saw it fluttering amongst the dogwood branches. In no time, it went to the pile of firewood and I was finally able to get some shots. I stood there for a long while admiring it. As I loaded the photos in my computer and saw the bird, I was reminded of Matthew 6:26. "Matthew 6:26 - Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?" God takes care of the birds. They are important to Him. He also takes care of those who belong to Him.The past few months had been a bit hard financially and health-wise but throughout the hard times, my hubby and I were able to see the amazing Love and Grace that our Lord bestows. He sustained us all throughout and we ...

Today is my anniversary with my beloved. I cannot believe how much time has flown and how we have both grown together since we met! With many bad experiences of my first marriage, I couldn't believe when the Lord took hold of my hand and guided me through life to favor the encounter of my darling. Since then, my spiritual life has changed for the better! I was never happier. Oh mind you, there were bumps along the way but we both allowed the Lord to take control of our lives and when that happened, blessings poured forth. I am thankful that I married someone who loves and serves the Lord each day! He's my best friend and my the love of my life. Happy anniversary, honey!

Well friends, Fall is finally here and the leaves are already starting to turn. Here down in the south, they seem to get dry faster! Maybe I will be able to get up to the mountains when the leaves are in their brilliant colors. The night air is crisp and the mornings are very cool when I have to take my daughter to school. I feel sorry for all the kids who have to wait on the buses! Today, as I stepped out on the back porch, the chickens, turkeys and peacocks are all so tamed that they came scampering towards me, thinking that I was going to feed them. They didn't need any. There was this one peacock who thought he was going to get there first that he flew up the rails on the steps and started walking upwards towards where I was. I ran back inside to grab my camera. You can see him below :) He is so tame that he doesn't fly away when you get near him. Thanksgiving is coming up. Who knows, maybe he will be the main feast ;) You all have a blessed day!
