Sunny Side Up!!


We always have a choice, don't we?

To look at the problem, situation, obstacle...
whatever...
or to count it all JOY!

Well, life is far too short, and God far too good
to throw pity parties or get depressed!!

SOOOOOOOO...


I choose JOY and living
SUNNY SIDE UP!!!

Thank you for all of your sweet encouragement!
I am doing much better because you prayed and
God ministered to my heart!  You are wonderful!!


Today I chose joy and the day was so much
BRIGHTER!!

Love you!

Heads up for that giveaway!!

It will be up by tomorrow!!

Blessings and hugs,
Becky

They're Gone


Our oldest daughter, Sam, her hubby, and our
only grandy, Emily, just left here to move to Tennessee.

This is the first one of our 3 older daughters
to move out of state.  The other two still live with us.

Sam gave me these lovely mums for helping her out when
they got in a pinch yesterday and had to clear their house
for the landlord's inspection.


I will miss them so very much.  But we can I-chat, and
will take turns with the 12 hour drive for visits.



Right now I'm feeling at a loss, teary, and my heart,
like these lovely delicate petals,
is fragile.

I covet your prayers for their safe arrival tomorrow,
and for the aching hearts here at home.

Love you dear friends,
Becky

Around the Yard!

HAPPY TUESDAY, DEAR ONES!!

I hope you had a delightful weekend!!

We did even though we didn't accomplish
all we had hoped to...it is still there waiting for
us...it will get done little by little this week!!

Upon returning from my morning bike ride, which was truly divine,
 I decided to take a walk around the yard with my camera.

Here are a few of the pretties I found.
First blooms on the Crepe Myrtle. 
Love the sun lighting up the leaves!

A fountain turned bird bath for my adorable winged visitors!
Oh what would the morning be without the bird songs??

This little fig tree loved the winter freezes!
It has more figs on it than ever!!
Yummy figgy goodness to come!!
And ... a little ant traveling the stem.


LOVE this little stepping stone...
Perfectly weathered and wonderful!
Truly God's creation is poetry to my soul!

Why not go play "I spy" around your yard!
I know you'll delight in the beauty that surrounds you!
Then share it with us!

Have a lovely week and share your smile
with someone today, ok?

Big Squishy Hugs!!
Becky
