I haven't been taking pictures lately (because I have been too busy cleaning out my house!), but I need to start again because I've found that photography really helps me focus and hunt for the beauty and blessings each day.
One surprising beauty in our backyard is that our water lily is blooming! It has only bloomed once in six years, and this spring we've had seven flowers so far! Some of the lily pads are over 8 inches in diameter and they are almost completely filling up the upper pond. Elsa keeps waiting for the frogs arrive and jump on them. Because that's what attracts frogs - big lily pads for jumping on, of course.
Lovely! We could mail Elsa some frogs if you'd like. ;)
ReplyDeleteThose flowers are kisses from heaven; God knew their presence would add a little sweetness to your day during this season of grief.
ReplyDeleteWe have frogs, if you really want Elsa to have one. :)
