The gifts #246-254

As my family and I seek to find our rhythm, as we have welcomed and bid farewell to many guests, as we have said 'yes' and are also learning how to say 'no',  as we learn what is too much and we see what is just right....as we learn which reality to stretch our hope and strength, and faith around.....

I give thanks.

petting zoos















a child's discovery















the old man remembering his childhood

enduring friendship of these three....















                                                          and the memory of the one who has gone on...





the study of music








































my little one's giving heart.... and that she wanted Grandma there































the odds and ends that make a life beautiful....














a heart that is heavy and full of hope....

    The wildlife was in Sequim, WA. Elk are a part of the natural habitat in the PNW, though this one was spotted on a wild-life ranch of sorts. He looked majestic standing on his hill.

    The story my dad remembered was how he used to drive a tractor just like the one in the picture on his uncles farm. Apparently it takes quite a bit of elbow grease to get one of those things started!
