Today was the closest I have come to quitting this project. But, I am pressing on- still a day behind.
Katie and I gathered these lovely jonquils in the pasture yesterday. I never knew we had at least four different varieties blooming out there. There are tiny clustered ones, double blooming ones, pale colored ones and deep yellow ones. I love them all.
I gathered them into my blue and white tea cups today because I love yellow and blue together. I love playing with the flowers. I am adding them to my list of God’s good gifts.
Pressing on. Love and blessings to you all today.
Psalm 111:2 ~”Great are the works of the Lord; they are pondered by all who delight in them.”
Hi, Mary Anne! I just wanted to let you know how much of a blessing your posts are to me. Your sweet words show such love for and nearness to God. I’ve been praying for you, and I know that the Lord wants to fill your life with peace this year. Thank you for pushing through- your posts are a constant source of encouragement to me. Love,

Mary Anne, thank you for sharing your heart and your gift of seeing beauty , capturing it, and pointing us towards the God who loves us so. Your images and words are a balm to my heart every morning when the burdens of life are pressing down on me. I lost my mom almost 11 years ago and I know the ebb and flow of grief that can be overwhelming sometimes, even now. I will pray for you that you peace, hope and even joy fill your days, even through your grief.
No, no, please don’t quit Mary Anne! I love your wonderful expressions of beauty, sorrow, creation, joy, love, etc. all representing the gifts of God in our lives. Please know that I receive a word from the Lord every day I read your blog. You are a gift to many people and God delights in your sharing the talents He has given you. Thank you so much.
