Don't let the difficulties of the present moments overshadow the reality of God's promises. God's promises still stand. And God's promises are stronger than our failures.

And, my 4th cousin! I haven't seen him in 2 weeks and he already looks more like a little boy than a baby.

It took me awhile to catch up on your recent posts. I've been gone for several days. I love your pictures. What a nice, positive feeling for what it feels like to drive in fog. It really is sort of mysterious and soft feeling, isn't it? Your flower pictures hit a note with me. Sharing flowers is something my mother taught me. I guess birds share too, don't they? I have a peony too, that I got from a childhood neighbor. A pink one. It just hasn't bloomed yet.

What a cutie pie, and so fortunate to have a grandma to set everything aside to care for him. I enjoyed your last few blogs as I get caught up on my reading. I have always felt kind of weird in the fog...like the headless horseman would come gallopping by at any moment.

Sue said...

HE IS BEAUTIFUL!!! Hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day.

Aunt Julie said...

Is there another way to spell A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E? What a cutie-patootie! BTW, posting another of Aunt Julie's quilts on Friday!
