a little turkey talk…..

a little Tom Turkey came to our “Sweet Bird Garden”……
just a sweet little fella that belonged to a fun, quirky lady from church…..

he makes me smile & hear her laugh…..

he reminds me to be quirky…..it’s okay….

………….i am so blessed….💙🕯🦃

gifts in old books…..
listening…..
friendship….

“the moment that took my breath away”

i had been thinking about it for hours…..the build up in my heart….that first slight partial covering was just enough for my heart to just burst…..how small we are…how GREAT HE IS!


not the best picture…..but good enough for me to remember that moment that totally took my breath away…..i cried the entire totality of the eclipse……..& absolutely witnessed the Glory of God Himself…..i am so blessed💙🕯

this day…..

for you….for me….
i am so blessed…💙🕯

little spinning thoughts……

just a few little spinning thoughts….i wonder about the lady whole hands wore the smoothness to this wheel….was she a tiny little lady or did she stand tall & strong……..goodness the strength of pioneering women………

i am so blessed💙🕯

just a little touch of Spring…..💙🕯

just thinking of coming back to my blog from a long time away…..wishing you many blessings on the first day of Spring….

we are so very blessed…..💙🕯

4th blessings.....

“faith medicine”.....

that moment........  you look at something a bit differently......

labeling seed bottles today ..... this tiny little medicine bottle ........ 

honestly made me think ..... “faith is our medicine “ ........ 

“take a dose every day”...........

......................... i am blessed! 💙🕯

For me.......

He did it for me..........He did it for YOU!!!!

Sunday is coming................

.............................. i am blessed! 💙🕯

50........💜

yesterday...........was 50........ blink of an eye.....where did it go ...... kinda day.......

it was a gorgeous day like yesterday ...... a long day of morning rehearsals.......rehearsal dinner.....& 2:30 afternoon wedding ........ a whirlwind kinda day to a young twenty year old ...... i wish I had taken it all in more ..... breathed more .... hugged more ..... more photos ....... more aware .......... that in that very moment it all began in a blink of an eye ..... 

………………………………………  i am blessed💜

(our wedding color was purple & he remembered & bought me purple flowers💜)

Spring First.....

this day ...... “Spring First”  is what i am calling .......don’t you love “firsts”...... they can be so exciting....

so here we are.......first day of Spring ...... first daffodils ..... first bluebird spotted ......first day without a jacket.....first smell of the dirt ......(even the first worm......).........

blessings on this first day of Spring...... may it first be a day of blessings!

................. i am blessed! 💙🕯

love is patient....love is kind...

no words needed ....... this LOVE week .......

……………………………………… i am blessed ! 💙🕯

scattering tiny little seeds........

there are times ....... times when we know not what we can do .....

other than scatter...some tiny little seeds !

................... i am blessed! 💙🕯

a very BIG one.....

this day.... a very BIG day..... goodness how did I ever get this old ......

yes that is a 7 0...... mercy!

.................... I am blessed! 💙🕯🎂

aren’t we all cracked & wired together.....

really.......no excuses.......no reason......i just like everyone else....one foot in front of the other....

when our reality changes ...... we change ......... mercy ..... grace ...... & prayer to pull us all through these last few months     (that i see has almost been a year that i met you here last) ........... we are all fine ..... healthy & doing only the necessary things..... 

no open houses this year ....... but moments of stepping out of my box completely & doing “live video” Sales on Facebook “MUSTARD SEED MONDAY” 

my friends ...... when God calls us to step out in faith & completely out of our box ....... it is time to step .... no matter how “cracked or wired together” we might be ........ He is there to hold us together!!!!! 

i am back ......& I will be better .... do better ....

.................. i am blessed 💙🕯 

change......

honestly in life i don’t like change much.......i do like to move rooms around occasionally (which as i get older is more difficult)..........but.........sometimes we KNOW when something doesn’t work........thus the event in “shop revamp” last week......

....

this little cubbie wasn’t working where it was “bolted down i might say”......so last week it was tear it apart again day......quickly changed.....better....moving forward.....almost finished!

are we not kinda like that occasionally.......we get “bolted down” in to something & think best & simpler to stay than to “CHANGE”................another sweet lesson i have learned during the.....reset....refresh...renew........

.................... i am blessed 💙🕯

another little peek......

sometimes......... things just take a lot of thinking & planning....... you know....the kind that just rolls over & over in your mind & keeps you awake........you get excited about the next day...then the next............ all because you are doing something new........

just a tiny little peek......

the first things back were the lamps....... you know.......
God said “let there be light; and there was light”.........i felt this new beginning appropriate to begin there......each day now is filled with unboxing goodes as they find a new area to shine......stay tuned......

..........................i am blessed 💙🕯
