What Lifts Your Spirit

My youngest granddaughter
never fails to make me smile.

Gymnastics this past year
and she is good.

Image received this morning

Safe travel wishes go out to my daughter
Beth
as she travels to Nantucket to visit my granddaughter.

Another special daughter in Michigan recovering from Pneumonia
and hopefully you are soon back to full strength.

Each of my children and grandchildren
come to mind as this day begins.

A lot going on in this family.

Here in the country
a lot of outside work planned today.

The thought never leaves my mind
that this one
has so much
to be thankful for.

Just life is going by too fast...

Well, I have to say it....Don't overdo today :)

Your family is certainly all spread out. Your little gymnast is wonderful. I'll bet she brings you a lot of fun.
Have a nice weekend.

We need time to savor do we not? Too much happening too fast.

What I love about today's world, the immediate thrill of instant photos of our dear ones' lives.

Lovely funny shot :)

Thinking of you in this moment before I go to sleep, with love, always love… yes it goes by quickly, except in the precious moments when we pause to notice beauty and blessing then time is suspended, irrelevant.
